Ok I now have the following .rpm's installed on my RH 8.0 x86 box (per
the Bastille web page) :

perl-Curses-1.06-4mdk.i586.rpm
perl-Tk-800.023-9mdk.i586.rpm
pwlib-1.3.3-5.i386.rpm
Bastille-2.0.4-1.0.i386.rpm
Bastille-Curses-module-1.2.0-1.1mdk.noarch.rpm

RPM reports a successful install on each of them.

When I run the bastille script, I still get this message :

WARNING: /usr/bin/perl cannot find Perl module Tk.
  The above module(s) is/are required to correctly display
          the Bastille User Interface. If you are unable to find a
          pre-compiled module for your OS, they can be found at:
            http://www.cpan.org/modules/01modules.index.html
          If you installed the modules in another installation of
          perl besides the one listed in the error message, you may
          override Bastille's search path by setting the
          $CORRECT_PERL_PATH environment variable to the directory
          that the desired perl binary is located in.

Has anyone else had this problem, or know a way around it?

Thanks,
Bill Bertram
