in thread How Do I Do an IP Broadcast in Perl?

Just showing him a working example of sending the broadcast,

But you don't, you're sending to localhost.

and many systems are setup that non-root user access is disallowed for ports < 1024
It should be >1024 of course (as Corion rightly pointed out to me). But no "normal" system I know entirely restricts users from sending UDP packets over the network.

All dogma is stupid.
