socket.error:(13,'Permission deied')

[Austin]

............... ..........
data = ....
self.broadcast_ ip = 255.255.255.255

UDPSock.sendto( data,(self.broa dcast_ip,36))
............... ...........


These codes run on Windows without errors and warnings.
But i excute that on Fedora Core 2, it shows the error
"socket.error:( 13,'Permission deied')"
i try to disable the firewall and become a root but it doesn't work, either.

Does anyone have any suggestions ?

Broadcasting is a privileged operation on Unixes, you need to set
SO_BROADCAST flag. See manpage socket(7).

Hope this helps,
