WARNING!

Post by newdep »

FYI

Hello Lutz,

There seems to be a backdoor/flaw in the registration of phpbb during registration, where people can post under other user-names!
The workaround is to manual verify all new subscribers..
I just read this in a different forum.

Thanks for the note, Ryon is maintaining this board and will take care of it.

Also, just figured out that no code changes are necessary for broadcast mode in UDP, should work on existing versions, simply specify the broadcast mask 255 in the address to send to:


(net-receive-udp 1234 10) ; on two computers

and on the second computer:

(net-send-udp "192.168.1.255" 1234 "hello")

works nice on my LAN with two computers at 192.168.1.96 and 97

Hello Lutz,

Does not work here, are you sure you did not enable sockopt befor?
Or are you using Win2000 ? I know that some versions of windows
have broadcast on by default...

My sending computer was a Win2k, the receiving the same and a WinXP-Home. I will try again after a reboot.
