First of all, binding is something a server does, and should not be used unless you are going to listen on a port for connections. Also, UDP is connectionless, so we don't want to connect(). Create the socket as you normally would using the socket() with getprotobyname("udp"), etc. Now, go ahead and call the send(). Yeah, it is a system call, but NT has the same system call, used through a WinSOCK library. If it still doesn't work, your perl package may not be as compatible as originally thought. But, before jumping to that conclusion, check your code for every last detail, and rewrite it a couple of times. Joe
