UDP help.

[mmavipc]

This code seems to not work

#include <array.au3>
$ip = @IPAddress1
UDPStartup()
;~ $udpr = UDPBind($ip,4312)
$udp = UDPopen("255.255.255.255", 4312)
$e = @error 
_ArrayDisplay($udp)
MsgBox(0,"1",$udp)
If $e = True or $udp = -1 Then
    MsgBox(0, "2", $e)
EndIf
While 1
    UDPSend($udp, "au3client|" & $ip)
    $e = @error
    If $e = True Then
        MsgBox(0, "3", $e)
    EndIf
WEnd
Func OnAutoItExit()
    UDPCloseSocket($udp)
;~  UDPCloseSocket($udpr)
    UDPShutdown()
EndFunc   ;==>OnAutoItExit

Any help is appriciated!

Is there anyway to send,receive,connect, and listen on the broadcast address? Eg. 255.255.255.255

I have multiple computers in my LAN and i plan to make like a security au3 script. So I can control all computers from one place. On startup the computers will broadcast(255.255.255.255) asking for the servers IP. then the server will not broadcast but unicast it's ip to the client. Is there anyway do to that?

Hmm I just looked and It looks like this is not possible with TCP. (sigh) Looks like It's time I learned UDP
