Perl socket on linux won't accept connections from windows clients

[Eli Sidwell]

I am trying to write a tcp server for linux using perl.

When I run the file it works, but it only accepts connects form linux,
won't accept connects from windows apps.

Any help is appreciated.

Sid.

As in: it works on localhost, not from the outside world?
