( #3333=superdoc: print w/ replies, xml ) Need Help??

fork() is flaky on Win32 in my experience but you can get it to do some things. For a start I would try setting autoflush with a $|++ Also from the docs:

NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE As of VERSION 1.18 all IO::Socket objects have autoflush turned o +n by default. This was not the case with earlier releases. NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE

If you have working code on Linux it could be related to an outdated version of IO::Socket on the Windows box. merlyn will have a column on this and I know he has written a number of client/server apps. Check out his home node.
