POE::Component::Client::Rcon is an implementation of the Rcon protocol -- the protocol commonly used to remotely administer Half-Life, Quake, and RTCW (Return to Castle Wolfenstein) servers. It is capable of handling multiple Rcon requests simultaneously, even multiple requests to the same IP/Port simultaneously.
