[mrtg] cfgmaker errors - can't locate "cleanhostkey" - using perl

[Eric Brander]

Friends,

I have a fresh install of Fedora Core 4 + updates.

I have installed:
mrtg 2.11.1
perl v5.8.6 

Primarily I've been a Windows MRTG & RRDTool user. But I need MORE
POWER, so I'm attempting to convert 100% to Linux. So, out of habit, I
run:

perl cfgmaker comstring at ip.address

I get:

Can't locate object method "cleanhostkey" via package
"comstring at ip.address:" (perhaps you forgot to load
"comstring at ip.address:"?) at cfgmaker line 264.

(community string and ip address hidden of course, that's not what I
used)

Just for grins, and since I saw that cfgmaker is an executable script, I
tried just running it outright - and to my amazement it worked.

What does this mean? Do I have a borked perl install? Was I just doing
it wrong? Can I expect problems in the future?

Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,

Eric Brander
