I am making an IRC bot to bridge 2 channels on different networks.

Super. Considered using a CPAN module to save reinventing wheels?

It may be that Bot::BasicBot doesn't do what you need, but this wheel has been reinvented so many times that it's at least worth taking a look at before you plunge into the madness of manual socket programming :-)

If you're stuck with manual socket work, at least look at the relevant CPAN modules related to socket programming, e.g.

    <http://search.cpan.org/~nwclark/perl-5.8.7/ext/IO/lib/IO/Socket.pm>
    <http://search.cpan.org/~nwclark/perl-5.8.7/ext/Socket/Socket.pm>
    <http://search.cpan.org/search?query=socket&mode=all>

And if I myself am inventing a wheel that you've already looked at :-), then please show some more of the code you've already tried & had trouble with.
