Hi thanks for the reply, ldd outputs:

-bash-3.00$ ldd /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.12.0/sun4-solaris/auto/Socket/S
+ocket.so
        libc.so.1 =>     /lib/libc.so.1
        libm.so.2 =>     /lib/libm.so.2
        /platform/SUNW,Sun-Fire-V445/lib/libc_psr.so.1

I have also used ldd -r and I get the following: Main thing imo:

        symbol not found: inet_pton             (/usr/local/lib/perl5/
+5.12.0/sun                                             4-solaris/auto
+/Socket/Socket.so)

Do you think that this is causing the problem? because the error log states that "...symbol inet_aton: referenced symbol not found at..." or does that point to XSLoader.pm? All of the info:
