Re^3: Hex value of Perl file handle to uniquely identify

Be aware that handles do get reused. Once a client disconnects, the next connect might reuse that handle.

For uniqueness, you might consider combining the output from IO::Socket's PeerHost() and PeerPort() methods: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:nnnn.

Also, I don't see a lot of value in sprintfing the handle, over the default stringification 'GLOB(0xHHHHHH)"?

With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". I knew I was on the right track :)

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
