Help with Storable.pm

Dear Sirs,

This is the most basic of questions.  I hope you don't mind me asking.  I'm 
just starting to learn to use putty to install things.

I need Storable in my /usr/bin directory.  I've been able to upload it to 
my server and even install it, but I'm not sure if I have installed it to 
the proper directory and in the proper form.

First I uploaded it to a directory on my server.  Then I went through the 
following set of commands and responses.  When it was all done, I still 
didn't see storable in my usr/bin/ directory, but I did see changes in the 
original directory that I performed the command in. See below for what I did...


person /home/storable# ls
ChangeLog       Makefile.PL     Storable.pm     t
MANIFEST        README          Storable.xs
person /home/storable# perl Makefile.PL /usr/bin

person /home/storable# cd /usr/bin

When I look in the directory that I originally uploaded the file to, it 
seems to have changed, but this is not where I keep my Perl files.  See 
below...


person /usr/bin# cd ..
person /usr# cd ..
person /# cd home
person /home# ls

Makefile        Storable.bs     Storable.pm     pm_to_blib
person /home/storable#

Any help or advice is appreciated.
