hello
thx for your suggestion but when I use nc in a fake hobbit server it's working :)
nc -l 1984 receive my query and I can respond to my xymon.pl script and I can see the answer.
I'll have a look to your url.

hello Hi, I need to do a xymondboard directly with tcp. nc is working :
echo "hobbitdboard host=xxxxx test=ping" | nc xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 1984
is working. But my perl code is not working :
#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use IO::Socket;
$| = 1;
my $sock = new IO::Socket::INET ( PeerAddr => 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx', PeerPort => '1984', Proto => 'tcp', ) or warn "Cannot connect to xymon : $!\n";
print $sock "hobbitdboard host=xxxx test=ping\n";
my $answer =<$sock>; print "$answer\n";
close ($sock);
Someone can help me ? looks like you have to read the sock before you can print it; please find below an example in french with sockets http://www.dil.univ-mrs.fr/~chris/Perl/Sockets.htm thx
oau
bon courage
