Hi jethro!

The scripts have been working fine for years on the "old system" and the timeout value is in seconds (or was with the versions in use on the "old system").

My issues is not a matter of the script timing out or not, but rather it's a matter of IO::Select's can_read() function never returning, even when there is data waiting in the recv queue. If can_read() would return, the script would work normally, but can_read() is hanging indefinitely.

Thanks for your response!
