in reply to User-Agent

  1. use LWP; You won't have to learn the intricacies of HTTP conversations.
  2. I fail to see what's wrong with the user agent string you are getting in the log files. It's exactly the same string you passed to the HTTP server. Or am I missing something? Is that example line not from your log files?

    It is a cut and paste from the Log files.
    As i said even i am not able to understand what is wrong.
    It is an old program which i have to change and hence cant use LWP modules.
    Thanks

      If you're changing it, why not make it better?

      Use LWP. It will make things much more easier for you, as well as pave the way for greater functionality, if you desire.
