The broadcast works for other computers and I don't get an error, so this does not seem to be exactly the problem. However, I have been wondering about some other, more obscure, flag that we never heard of.

At this point I don't know if the problem is in sending or receiving because another datagram sockets bug makes it hard to do some testing.

Does sound kind of like a bug.


Do those man pages use the phrase "remote computer" when referring to broadcasting?

They refer to "address of the target", and "destination address". I don't see the phrase remote computer anywhere.


BTW here are some old apple technotes that talk about "the endpoint never receives any UDP broadcast messages" and "IP reuse address delay"

Those predate apple's move to BSD networking, but still might be useful info.
