Hi Andrew,
I would like to send a broadcast UDP packet (dest mac ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff)
that also has a destination IP adress of 255.255.255.255 out an existing
(configured)interface. This seems like it should be simple but the best
that I've been able to get is a packet with 10.255.255.255 in the dest IP
field which I presume is a network broadcast. Most of the failed attempts
produce the ENETUNREACH or EHOSTUNREACH errors when I set the s_addr field
(sockaddr_in)to INADDR_BROADCAST.
Thanks for responding,
Dan

Could you explain what you mean by limited broadcast IP?
Thanks
