Hi, FYI, Noury did this package (Network-Extra). I will test for my lecture. It has UDP Multicast/broadcast and may help for the discovery phase (I���m interested in that either).

He said that about it:

UDP support : mutlicast + broadcast
- fragment a (large) data et assemble it over UDP
-la possibilit�� de fragmenter une donn��e trop grande et la reconstruire au-dessus d'UDP

Gofer it

Hope this help,

See you,

C��drick

Ps: tell me if you use it.

Does UDP broadcast required particular privilege on the host?

Thanks

If it is on a single network this should be doable by using UDP broadcast
announcements. The share server can announce some information and its IP
in a UDP packet being broadcasted. Every client receives that and then
knows the address of the server to connect to

No, but it does involve setting certain options on the socket, etc.
You could check if http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~henriksp/SSDP is
appropriate/works for you.

Cheers,
Henry
