Hi All,

Can anyone help me for the UDP questions which I have below.

Basically I what I need to know is 

a) how does a server sends a UDP broadcast to all the machines on a network
? - What all function calls and what flags & arguments are to be given?

b) How do I receive such a message on the client side.


How do I do  a) & b) with the client sending broadcast & the server
receiving it?


Regards,
B.M.Shenoy

Subject: UDP broadcast sample?


Hi,

Can anyone give me a sample program for 

a) broadcasting a UDP message to all machines on a host. 
   - is a broadcast message sent to a particular port?    
   - also is there some way in which the sys admin can disable it? 
   - how do I check whether it is enabled or disabled?



b) Receiving such a message on a host. (This must be a simple receive at a
particular port?)


TIA
B.M.Shenoy
