Thomas,
Your analysis and the subsequent silence indicate that you probably
know more about this issue than anyone else does. What Perl module
are you using to send the packets? IO::Socket? If you are using
stdio on sockets, I'm afraid that's something that just doesn't work
on VMS. I think you have to use sysread() and syswrite(). Look in
the archive for a thread called "socket madness" or similar from
earlier this year. Let us know if you track the problem down.
