the URI http://www.cpan.org/authors/01mailrc.txt.gz is OK. so, i
guess, either you had a temporary problem and you should just try
again, or the path /homes/woprf/n/niranjan/.cpan/sources/authors/ is
for some reason invalid (maybe it exists but permissions do not allow
the current user to write a file to .../authors/).

can't say more on this, sorry.
hth,
