Hello, powerfull monks.

I have a problem connecting to a socket.
It's a server program and client. Don't complain on the code, I'm just beginer.

Server prog:

$line = "Hello, world!\n";
$port = 2000;
while (getservbyport ($port, "tcp")) {
$port++;
}
($d1, $d2, $prototype) = getprotobyname ("tcp");
($d1, $d2, $d3, $d4, $rawserver) = gethostbyname("silver");
$serveraddr = pack ("Sna4x8", 2, $port, $rawserver);
socket (SSOCKET, 2, 1, $prototype) || die ("No socket");
bind (SSOCKET, $serveraddr) || die ("Can't bind");<br>
listen (SSOCKET, 1) || die ("Can't listen");
($clientaddr = accept (SOCKET, SSOCKET)) ||
die ("Can't accept");
select (SOCKET);
$| = 1;
print SOCKET ("$line\n");
close (SOCKET);
close (SSOCKET);

Client prog: 

$port = 2000;
while (getservbyport ($port, "tcp")) {
$port++;
}
($d1, $d2, $prototype) = getprotobyname ("tcp");
($d1, $d2, $d3, $d4, $rawclient) = gethostbyname ("mercury");
($d1, $d2, $d3, $d4, $rawserver) = gethostbyname ("silver");
$clientaddr = pack ("Sna4x8", 2, 0, $rawclient);
$serveraddr = pack ("Sna4x8", 2, $port, $rawserver);
socket (SOCKET, 2, 1, $prototype) || die ("No socket");
bind (SOCKET, $clientaddr) || die ("Can't bind");
connect (SOCKET, $serveraddr);
$line = <SOCKET>;
print ("$line\n");
close (SOCKET);

When I run server then client prog, server waits for client
, but client print the null line.
