That + approach was confusing people whose draconian firewall software + didn't like binding to UDP sockets, regardless of whether + packets were sent. Now we try to use getifaddrs(), SIOCGIFCONF, + or GetAdaptersAddresses(), depending on what the system + supports. Resolves ticket #1827. -- cgit v1.2.3
