Hi, 

actually I've noticed that sometimes I get the message 
about connection timed out and sometimes I get :


Connecting to CDDB...Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//)
at /usr/pkg/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/CDDB_get.pm line 396, <GEN0>
line 1.
query error at cddb db: freedb.freedb.org:888
at /usr/pkg/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/CDDB_get.pm line 397, <GEN0>
line 1.
spirit# 


What could cause this pattern match problem please?
It's from the rip script unaltered by me. It's just 
as it is from the package source install.

thanks,
Paul.
