Hai,
Please provide me with some working code that broadcasts a datagram over the local area netwrok. I have tried using setsockopt but it gives me error if I set the SO_BROADCAST FLAG AT THE SOL_SOCKET LEVEL. I will be grateful to you if you get me out of it. I am using pure socket interface, on unix.
Thank you
