sendmsg and broadcast addresses

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm having difficulty sending an IP_HDRINC IP on a raw IP socket
to a link broadcast address (e.g. 10.255.255.255).  I'm receiving
an EACCES error from sendmsg.  The messages are sent with DONTROUTE
set.

The same code successfully sends to multicast addresses.

Is this a known problem with 2.2.16, and if so is it fixed in later
releases?

Thanks,
Chris.
