How To Set PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME to 0

My server recently upgraded to LWP 6.0 and I need to turn off SSL Verification. Can someone tell me, step by step, how to do so? The documentation says set PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME to 0 but I don't know where or how to accomplish this. Thanks!

Below is the error message that I get when running an IPN to CCBILL.

Code:
Can't connect to datalink.ccbill.com:443 (Crypt-SSLeay can't verify hostnames) Net::SSL from Crypt-SSLeay can't verify hostnames; either install IO::Socket::SSL or turn off verification by setting the PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME environment variable to 0 at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/LWP/Protocol/http.pm line 51.

NAME
Net::SSLGlue::LWP - proper certificate checking for https in LWP SYNOPSIS
use Net::SSLGlue::LWP SSL_ca_path => ...; use LWP::Simple; get( 'https://www....' ); { local %Net::SSLGlue::LWP::SSLopts = %Net::SSLGlue::LWP::SSLopts; # switch off verification $Net::SSLGlue::LWP::SSLopts{SSL_verify_mode} = 0; # or: set different verification policy, because cert does # not conform to RFC (wildcards in CN are not allowed for https, # but some servers do it anyway) $Net::SSLGlue::LWP::SSLopts{SSL_verifycn_scheme} = { wildcards_in_cn => 'anywhere', check_cn => 'always', }; } DESCRIPTION
Net::SSLGlue::LWP modifies Net::HTTPS and LWP::Protocol::https so that Net::HTTPS is forced to use IO::Socket::SSL instead of Crypt::SSLeay, and that LWP::Protocol::https does proper certificate checking using the "http" SSL_verify_scheme from IO::Socket::SSL. Because LWP does not have a mechanism to forward arbitrary parameters for the construction of the underlying socket these parameters can be set globally when including the package, or with local settings of the %Net::SSLGlue::LWP::SSLopts variable. All of the "SSL_*" parameter from IO::Socket::SSL can be used; the following parameters are especially useful: SSL_ca_path, SSL_ca_file Specifies the path or a file where the CAs used for checking the certificates are located. This is typically "etc/ssl/certs" on UNIX systems. SSL_verify_mode If set to 0, verification of the certificate will be disabled. By default it is set to 1 which means that the peer certificate is checked. SSL_verifycn_name Usually the name given as the hostname in the constructor is used to verify the identity of the certificate. If you want to check the certificate against another name you can specify it with this parameter. SEE ALSO
