Hi, I'm writing a program to forward udp broadcasts. For protocols such as NNBS and Browser protocol, I need to have multiple subnets appear as one broadcast subnet - for these udp ports. For this to happen, broadcasts received on certain udp ports are broadcast forward on the other interfaces. Unfortunately for me, these broadcasts are received back at me, on the interfaces on which they were sent out, reulting in a loop. To block these broadcast loopbacks, I tried using the setsockopt command, with the IP_MULTICAST_LOOP set to zero (hoping that, since broadcasts are specific cases of broadcast, this would work) but to no avail. Does anyone have any ideas as to how this can be done? Help, please!
