Bug #62334 for OWNet: access to owserver/sketchy solution

Hi First of all thanks for all this, makes all my one-wire experiments much easier. There's a bug on CPAN about connecting to the server: 1. I've given up trying to use a specified port and dropped back to default. 2. If you enable verbose for the connect using non default, you get the error message in the ticket + complaint about Net/Rendezvous, that doesn't seem to install from CPAN, so I gave up on that.. 3. Currently working on Ubuntu 10,4 LTS: sudo /opt/owfs/bin/owserver -d /dev/ttyUSB0 (therefore port 4304 I believe?) then: use OWNet ; my $owserver = OWNet->new( "localhost -v" ) ; my $temperature = $owserver->read( "/28.AE806B020000/temperature" ) ; print "temp is $temperature\n" ; Incidentally somwhere on the owfs site, somewhere there's some capitalisation mistakes OWNET rather than OWNet for example. Easy but enough to trip up a beginner.
