Hi Gordon,
I've found this a problem on the different platforms I've been compiling on
(linux (redhat9), cygwin, tivo and rio etc)
Some need inaddr_broadcast, others need inaddr_any.
Don't know the kernel/gcc versions off the top of my head, but will check
later.
Will also retry inaddr_any, in case I'm going mad...
Regards
Tony
