You can use sendto(2) on any socket, connected or not. You need a connected socket only for send(2). Furthermore, please note that there is no such thing as a UDP "connection" by definition, since UDP is a connectionless protocol. The kernel allows you to call connect(2) on UDP sockets, to specify an arbitrary peer address, so that you can use send(2). But that's just a convenience. > This gives me hint that to send such a packet I have to write a > program that tries to connect on that port using UDP. Here's another hint: ask Google about "UDP client example". -- ams _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ Sumit Chaudhary Network Seurity Engg.
