You have warnings off; no wonder it runs without any messages :)

You're doing way too much work. If you simply make the ip address one number, it'll be a lot easier to sort on. I do that below by zero padding and joing the four numbers. You don't need to do anything with the time, since it's zero-padded, so you can sort it easily. For the date you can do the same: left-pad the numbers with zeros. 

sub by_ip
{
    my (%months, $i);
    $months{$_} = $i++ for qw(Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct 
+Nov Dec);

    my $a_ip = join "", map { sprintf("%.3d", $_) } split /[.]/, $a->[
+0];

    my $b_ip = join "", map { sprintf("%.3d", $_) } split /[.]/, $b->[
+0];

    my @a_date = split '/', $a->[3];
    my @b_date = split '/', $b->[3];

    my $a_date = sprintf "%.2d-%.2d-%.4d", $a_date[0], $months{$a_date
+[1]}, $a_date[2];

    my $b_date = sprintf "%.2d-%.2d-%.4d", $b_date[0], $months{$b_date
+[1]}, $b_date[2];

    ($a_ip <=> $b_ip) || ($a_date <=> $b_date) || ($a->[4] <=> $b->[4]
+);
}

sort by_ip @logentry;

I haven't tested it, since I do not know what your logfiles look like (post!).

Anyway, hope this helps.
