Hi, I am trying to port miniupnpd (http://miniupnp.tuxfamily.org/) and by in large it seems to work fine (evil idea as it is :) However it spews out a lot of.. miniupnpd[13010]: sendto(udp_notify): Operation not permitted
According to my reading of the man page it is not possible to get this error
unless I'm using jails (which I'm not). The code in question does..
memset(&sockname, 0, sizeof(struct sockaddr_in));
sockname.sin_family = AF_INET;
sockname.sin_port = htons(PORT);
sockname.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr(UPNP_MCAST_ADDR);
while(known_service_types[i])
{
snprintf(bufr, sizeof(bufr),
"NOTIFY * HTTP/1.1\r\n"
"HOST:%s:%d\r\n"
...
n = sendto(s, bufr, strlen(bufr), 0,
(struct sockaddr *)&sockname, sizeof(struct sockaddr_in) );
(line 278 of miniupnpd.c).
Can someone shed light on what the problem is? The application appears to work
fine even with this error though.
I am running it on a FreeBSD 6.2 system.
Thanks.
