Hello. I'm having trouble with perl sockets. I want to 'use Socket' and not IO::Socket, but whatever I did won't produce the correct output. Here is what I'm feeding to my server:

$ printf "\x05\x01\x00" | nc server port

Which doesn't produce any output on my server. Here's the code: 
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use integer;
use Socket;

my $port = 50000; # Port to bind to
my $FORK = 0;     # Do we fork?

my $proto = getprotobyname('tcp');
socket(SERVER, PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, $proto) or die "socket:$!";
setsockopt(SERVER, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, pack("l", 1)) or die
"setsockopt: $!";
bind(SERVER, sockaddr_in($port, INADDR_ANY)) or die "bind: $!";
listen(SERVER, SOMAXCONN) or die "listen: $!";

if($FORK)
{
        my $pid = fork();
        die "fork: $!" if $pid < 0;
        exit if $pid;
}

for(;my $paddr=accept(CLIENT, SERVER); close CLIENT) {
        my ($ver,$nm,$methods) = ();
        recv(CLIENT,$ver,1,0);
        recv(CLIENT,$nm,1,0);
        if($ver == 0x05 && $nm)
        {
                print "Okay, getting $nm methods\n";
                recv(CLIENT,$methods,$nm,0);
        }
}

exit;
