Just showing him a working example of sending the broadcast, But you don't, you're sending to localhost. and many systems are setup that non-root user access is disallowed for ports < 1024It should be >1024 of course (as Corion rightly pointed out to me). But no "normal" system I know entirely restricts users from sending UDP packets over the network. All dogma is stupid.
