Net::ICB provides an object interface to a fnet/icb style chat server. FNET or ICB is an old chat protocol dating back to 1988. The original code was written in fortran on some godforsaken machine at UKY by Sean Casey. After the server was rewritten in C, various servers sprung up and died over the years. As of 1998, approximately 4 public servers run, the most popular of which peaks at ~150 people. See http://www.icb.net/ for more information.
Net::Ident is a module that looks up the username on the remote side of a TCP/IP connection through the ident (auth/tap) protocol described in RFC1413 (which supersedes RFC931). Note that this requires the remote site to run a daemon (often called identd) to provide the requested information, so it is not always available for all TCP/IP connections.
This module is a simple way to access IMAP accounts. The API is mostly equivalent to the Net::POP3 one, with some aditional methods for mailbox handling.
The Net::Inet module provides basic services for handling socket-based communications for the Internet protocol family. It inherits from Net::Gen, and is a base for Net::TCP and Net::UDP.
Net::Interface is designed to make the use of ifconfig(1) and friends unnecessary from within Perl. It provides methods to get at set all the attributes of an interface, and even create new logical or physical interfaces (if your O/S supports it).
Net::IPv4Addr provides functions for parsing IPv4 addresses both in traditional address/netmask format and in the new CIDR format. There are also methods for calculating the network and broadcast address and also to see check if a given address is in a specific network.
