TCP isn't precise enough.

Imagine two people communicating.
They can communicate in English, in French, etc.
They can communicate verbally, in writing, etc
They can communicate over a phone, using snail mail, using a video, etc.

By picking TCP, you picked something from the second line, but you still have haven't picked a language.

Is it a Telnet server? an SSH server? HTTP? FTP? ...

    THe server is SSH.
    That means that the client have to log in to a SSH server then
    connect to the chat server using IO::Socket::INET
    This doesnt seem very reasonable, if not impossible.
