all,

getting an error running cpan on an HPUX 10.20 machine:

There seems to be running another CPAN process (25192). Contacting...
Other job is running.
You may want to kill it and delete the lockfile, maybe. On UNIX try:
    kill 25192
    rm /.cpan/.lock

problem is, this is the same PID as the cpan process I am running. what gives ?

thanks
