Your input data probably contains an extra \r that is not removed by chomp. You can see that with Data::Dump:
use Data::Dump qw( pp );
# some code here
print pp \@ip;
chomp(@ip);
print pp \@ip;
One of the ways this can happen is when you try to read a file created on Windows with perl running on Linux, or a Cygwin perl.
You can correct that by explicitly setting the input record separator to the CRLF format:
my @ip;
{
local $/ = "\r\n"; # because this is local, the normal behaviour is
+restored after this block
open my $dat, "<", $in_file or die "Can't open file $in_file: $!";
@ip = <$dat>;
chomp(@ip);
close $dat;
}

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
