Here's another regex w/split:

use warnings;
use strict;
use 5.010;

map{say /(.*),/} (split /:/)[1] while <DATA>;

__DATA__
host1    dns:192.168.243.30,asdf
host2    dns:192.168.243.1,qwert

Actually, by studying split, your are also studying regexes, since split takes a regex.

There are excellent solutions above, including AnomalousMonk's showing how to leverage modules, so you don't need to reinvent the (regex) wheel.

Perl's "There's more than one way to do it" (TMTOWTDI) dictum is clearly evidenced by the many responses to your query, and it can be justifiably asserted about these that--as Adrian Monk says--"It's a blessing, and a curse."

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
  • You may need to use entities for some characters, as follows. (Exception: Within code tags, you can put the characters literally.)
            For:     Use:
    & &amp;
    < &lt;
    > &gt;
    [ &#91;
    ] &#93;
