Yes, raw sockets need admin privileges, I knew that. The app I'm writing runs
as root so that's not a problem. It runs during the %pre script stage of a
kickstart controlled install.

Actually, I used to teach C, so yeah, I know it pretty well. :-)
Scapy is a possibility, I just need to add it to my environment (which doesn't
have a C compiler). I can jury rig something though.

In fact, I have used scapy in the past, but I am working in a restricted
environment and don't have this package available. It provides tones more than
I really need anyway, and I figured a simple raw socket send/receive can't be
*that* hard. I may have to reverse engineer some C code, such as d
If you don't *have* to use the actual socket library, you might want to
have a look at scapy. It's a packet manipulation program/library. It might
make things a little easier.

I just tried running you code, and the "sendto" call fails with "Network is
unreachable". That's what I expected, based on other tests I've done. That's
why I was asking about how to do raw sockets, since tools like dhclient use raw
sockets to do what they do. It can clearly be duplicated in Pyt

I want to write a program in Python that sends a broadcast message using raw
sockets. The system where this program will run has no IP or default route
defined, hence the reason I need to use a broadcast message.
I've done some searches and found some bits and pieces about using raw sockets
