Morgon:

Your advice was good, it helped the code to run without error, that is good. Now since its running i can see the next issue --the successful output isn't going to "telnet.log" . I am still looking at the documentation to check what went wrong and where i need to change.

Here is the changes i made 

#! /usr/bin/perl -w

# run telnet to port xxx
# read data

use strict;
use diagnostics;
use Net::Telnet;

my $file = 'iplist1.txt' ;
#my $command = `/bin/ping` ;
open (OUT,'>', "telnet.log");
open (IPS, '<', $file) 
  or die('unable to open the file', $file );

  while (my $ip = <IPS>) {
 chomp $ip;
#ping($_) ;
#print "$_ " ;
my $telnet = Net::Telnet->new(Host=>"$ip", Port=>'xxx', timeout=>4, er
+rmode=>
(sub {
open(OUT, ">>telnet.log");
print "Bad connection - Unable to connect to IP $ip at \r\n" ;
print "-------------------\r\n";
next;}));
}
close OUT ;
close IPS ;
