Can dhcpclient handle broadcasting ?

[Chaigneau, Nicolas]

Hello,


I'm trying to use dhcpclient to test broadcasting of a DHCP Discover.

I am root so I can use source port 68.
I'm sending the packet to the broadcast address.

I get the following error (returned by sendmsg, called from "sendfromto"): "Permission denied".

Is it possible to use dhcpclient from FreeRADIUS in broadcast mode ?



Regards,
Nicolas.
