           Summary: Broadcast packets don't get sent onto wire.
           Product: Wine
           Version: 20020804
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-net
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.com
        ReportedBy: cheako911 at yahoo.com


There is a problem with the network code that affects HP's jetadmin(.exe)  and
Half-Life(? maby others).  In the jetadmin case there is no dialog to enter IPs
or MACs so broadcast packets are needed for this program to work at all.

Jetadmin should send ought a broadcast packet asking for all the printers to
respond, this packet is not receved by my other computers. I don't know what
calles jetadmin uses to produce these packets.

I can make logs avalible on request.
