in reply to Sharing sockets between threads

You might be having some difficulty involving the way you have it as a Package....but...in general, you share the fileno of the socket's filehande. See: Simple threaded chat server for a usage example.

    Cool! How do I get the socket object from its fileno?

      get the socket object from its fileno

      I'm sure there is a backtracking trail you could go thru, via some socket utility, like socklist, but I think your best bet is to just store the info in a hash, like 

      %client;
$client{$id}{$sock} = $socket; 
$client{$id}{'fileno'} = fileno( $socket );

      then all you need to do is track id values.
