Hello cheako,

Thank you for your time and effort reading and replying to my question.

I modified the code as you propose and also I am using use diagnostics; as I found online to assist me identifying the error. Still I can not understand why my send packet is wrong.

This is the output that I am getting when I execute the code.

Client Transmit: Sat Mar 7 02:29:37 2015 $VAR1 = [ 'B8 C3 N10 B32', '00100011', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', '0', 1425691777, 761152, '0', '0', 1425691777, 761152 ]; Invalid type '1' in pack at NTPperl.pl line 50 (#1) (F) The given character is not a valid pack or unpack type. See "pack" in perlfunc. (W) The given character is not a valid pack or unpack type but use +d to be silently ignored. Uncaught exception from user code: Invalid type '1' in pack at NTPperl.pl line 50.

Line 50 is:

my $send_sntp_packet = pack @argsforpacksend_sntp_packet;
