I've been working with TCP so far, and there's enough in the fine manual to know how to do TCP... but it falls a bit short on the differences in how to set up a UDP server. I've had a bit of a google around, but I haven't found much there either..
I've played around a bit with two scripts on the command line (which are probably wrong anyway, so not much point in posting them, I just want a bit of info on how setting up an IO::Socket::INET with UDP is different) and had no luck. I don't know if one or both of them is broken. if someone could show me a bit of info on how to set it up, or (even better) a pair of scripts that can talk from one to the other via UDP (even if it's just a '1' every second). However, what I want to do with this, is have a pulse-update send out over the Internet (a message of a few hundred bytes every 60sec, for example), and it would be wasteful to send the same info to each client individually... if I'm looking at doing something too complicated, please let me know that too 8^) TIA Adam -- Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum viditur.
