Have you looked at line 21?

\Ping

This does not make sense. Maybe you meant ping? Read perlre about what \P means.

    Well I tried that and it worked. Thanx alot. But now I have another problem.
    my $alive = ping(host => "$URL");
    In the above statement the $URL now refers to ping google.com instead of  google.com. How do I correct that??
      By removing the leading "ping " with substr, split or a regex/subsitution
      Perl 6 - links to (nearly) everything that is Perl 6.
      s/^ping\s+//; is one way. Changes the string, but I think that's not a problem as you have things.
