    Hi,

    Looks ok for me. On your code replace:
    $self->Usage ("Can't start client: $!");
    with
    $self->Usage ("Can't start client: $@");
    And now, when you say it don't work, you mean that, more specificly? The socket is not opening, which error are you getting in $@?

      ok, this $@ is cool: Program: /var/opt/FirePower/bin/fireclient.pl Version: 2.0.0 Message: Can't start client: IO::Socket::INET: Bad protocol 'tcp' Usage: Why would tcp all of a sudden be a bad protocol?

        Perhaps someone edited /etc/protocols or switched the machine from or to using NIS.
