in thread Run only if it the request is originating from a specific machine

Request implies a server, and if it comes from another machine, it implies a socket. That's why I mentioned it.

In fact, there is a socket involved, but it's not connected to STDOUT according to a test.

$ ssh localhost 'perl -E'\''say getpeername(\*STDOUT) || die $!'\''' Socket operation on non-socket at -e line 1.

Sorry, I don't know the solution to your problem.
