Hello All,

I have been away for some time but recently I have a need to do somthing new with my empeg other than play music.

I want to use netcat to send a wake packet to another server on my network. This works fine from a DOS version of nc but I cannot get the empeg build to do what I want. I am sending:

/drive1/var/nc -u -w 3 192.168.1.255 21 < /drive1/var/wakepkt
The result is Permission Denied.

If i change the command to direct it to the server in question rather than a broadcast address then it goes through OK.

How do I set the permissions of what I can send via UDP? Its my empeg surely I should be able to do what I want on my network

Any help would be appreciated.
