in reply to Client still valid?

Are these IO::Socket objects? Assuming so, you can call $client->connected to check status. $client->send $msg, $opts if $client->connected(); Also, I think you should get SIGPIPE when the client disconnects, so a %SIG handler for that may be useful.

      The $client object is documented in 'perldoc IO::Socket'. It also inherits methods from IO::Handle.
