That should have been 'doesn't end in .255' not .222

Cheers,

Hiya,

.255 is usually used as the broadcast IP for any routers/routing in the network.

The broadcast address is for _network broadcasts_. Change the IP address you're sending to so that it doesn't end in .222 or .0

Cheers,

Luis.

Hey,
 Today I was trying to get broadcasts working for a simple (very simple)
chat program for use on a LAN that sends using broadcasts.  I was able to
get the Windows version working fine, it sent to the IP 192.168.0.255 and
all the other clients received it (PC and Mac), but I can't seem to send a broadcast on my OS X machine. I am sending it to the same address, but no one receives it. I ran the shell command ifconfig to divine the broadcast
address (which was the same as the one the PC was using), but it didn't
work.  Is there a different address I should be sending it to?
