in thread Net::IRC does not connect

I am facing the same problem with Net::IRC but I am not entirely sure what to comment out, could you please upload either the file or send it to me at linuxlc@iname.com?

Thanks in advance

    Sorry that I didn't reply earlier.

    In Net::IRC::Connection, there's a connect() sub, that has this piece of code: 
    #    my $sock = IO::Socket::INET->new(PeerAddr => $self->server,
#                    PeerPort => $self->port,
#                    Proto    => "tcp",
#                   );

    $sock = Symbol::gensym();
    unless (socket( $sock, PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, getprotobyname('tcp')
+ )) {
        carp ("Can't create a new socket: $!");
    $self->error(1);
    return;
    }

    Uncomment the upper part and comment out the part below, it should work then.

      Unfortunately Uncommenting the upper part and commenting out the lower does not help me here....

    Thanks for your reply anyway

    But I made the switch to POE::Component::IRC
