Hi, > I am using *sendto* function to send a RIP packet. > It is working fine when I send a packet to a particular destination ( like 192.168.163.132 with subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 ) but when I am trying to send a broadcast packet ( i.e. setting the destination IP address to 192.168.163.255 ) it is giving me an error message " Permission denied ". > Is there any way to set the permissions. >Any pointers?
