Thank you, everyone, for all the book reviews and suggestions. That gives me a lot to think about since I've been leaning towards Programming the Perl DBI for a few months now.

I believe I will have to go with jeffa's suggestion and go with Networking Programming with Perl, he's helped me with my scripts for quite some time and he knows pretty well what I need to brush up on.

Off to Amazon.com (or maybe Ebay) I go, thanks again for all the suggestions. If I had the money to spare, I'd buy every single book you guys mentioned!
