There is a flag in perl to force autoflush on a pipe stream (which a socket is handled as such), which can be set by, I believe, $socket->autoflush(1); Give it a whirl, and be sure to check the IO::Socket Man page.

I have a TCP network connection between client and server which is working fine, but I am unable to get the connection to autoflush the data being sent by the client. If I close the connection, the "queued" data gets flushed to the server before the connection is closed. Anyone got any quick pointers as to how to get the connection to autoflush? Many thanks for this off topic question.
