in thread Extremely odd behavior with net::ping and fork

If ip-address.txt contains more than one host/address, there's no pause between them because there's no sleep() in the foreach $host (@ip) loop. There's only a pause after the whole list has been processed.
I realize that. The .txt file contains 4 addresses, but 3 of them are commented out, and should not be pinged (on the "unless" command). Also, you can see the IP being pinged is always the same.
