255.255.255.255 seems to work with [udpsend] on linux, :O WHOOOPS you're right. I don't know what I was doing wrong. Sorry for the noise m. ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

[udpsend] can also do multicasting, which isn't so wasteful of bandwidth, and can cross onto other networks if you set the hop count appropriately.
