By the way, if I try to connect to 192.168.2.255 (which is the broadcast address for my actual local network) instead of 255.255.255.255, I get the same error in the terminal, but in this case, in the Pd console I also see the message "bad host?"

Hi,
I've used netsend for broadcasting UDP packets to the local network
for
years, connecting to 255.255.255.255:5000 (or any other port >1024)
and
I never had problems under Windows.
However in Linux it doesn't work, it doesn't connect. If I run Pd from a terminal, I see this error in the terminal output: "connecting stream socket: Permission denied (13)" (one of the few errors that don't appear in the pd console btw).
I remember mentioning this some time ago and being told that it had
been
fixed, but it seems it isn't.
Is there a way to circumvent this and be able to broadcast udp
packets
with netsend?
thanks m.
