Hmm.. You seem to assume that forking is the only way to connect to more that one client at a time, actually you can do it without fork at all, which means the main part keeps a reference to each socket connected, and can easily send data to each of the sockets in the list.
Eg: 
my $sockserv = new IO::Socket::INET( LocalAddr => '192.168.1.1',
                              LocalPort => $port,
                              Proto     => 'tcp',
                              Listen    => 1,
                              Reuse     => 1,
                              Timeout   => 60);
die "Can't create Server ($!)" unless $sockserv;

$x = new IO::Select();
$x->add($sockserv);

$clients = 0;
$sockclient=();

while (1) {
    my @handles = $x->can_read();    # wait for data
    foreach $handle (@handles)
    {
    if ($handle == $sockserv)
    {
                $sockclient = $sockserv->accept() || warn "accept: $!"
+;
        $clients++;
        if ($clients > 5)
        {
        print $sockclient "Sorry, we're full.\n";
        $sockclient->close();
        } else
        {
        $sockclients[$clients] = $sockclient;
        }
        $x->add($sockclients[$clients]);
    }
    $cl = is_member($handle, @sockclients);
    if ($cl > -1)
    {
        $n_read = sysread($sockclients[$cl], $buf, 1024);
        return 0 if (!n_read || !length $buf);
        parse_external_command($buf, $sockclients[$cl]);
    }
      }
}

Thus you have all clients in @sockclients, and can send data to each one using:
foreach my $sock (@sockclients)
{
    print $sock $data;
}

If you need forks tho, you'll need to find some other way to get an array of the sockets.
So maybe you should show us your code.
