NAME
       Net::connect - Connect to a server


SYNOPSIS
       NetHandle connect( Protocol proto, String server, Int port, Bool usetls=false, [String] certfiles=[] )


ARGUMENTS
       proto The network protocol to use

       server  The  hostname or IP address of the server to connect to (e.g.  service.example.com , localhost or
       192.168.20.25 )

       port The network port to connect to

       usetls If this is true, and the TLS library is available, then the connection  will  be  encrypted.  This
       parameter may be omitted and defaults to false.

       certs  An  optional list of certificate files for TLS encrypted connections. Each file should contain one
       or more PEM-encoded certificates for a trusted certification  authority.  If  this  list  is  empty  (the
       default), no certificate verification will be performed on encrypted connections, which is insecure.


DESCRIPTION
       Connect to a server (optionally using TLS). Returns a connection handle.
