Thanks to all who responded. The answer was simple.

The 4.035 version of PERL that I have was compiled on a SunOS 4 machine
not on a Solaris machine.

The 4.036 was compiled on the Solaris Machine.

The value for SOCK_STREAM has changed in Solaris 2.x,
you need to redefine SOCK_STREAM. (Slaris value: 2, SunOS 4 value: 1)

Once I did that all the scripts worked fine. Thanks again, as I never
would have found that tidbit of info in the docs.
