Ah well, I could go on... Suffice to say that it's not because I'm opposed to the features that a TCP connection, or DNS resolution would give, but I prioritize something that I feel confident is working to features. And doing a proper solution with all these aspects is more work than I have cared to put into it. The bridge program is a hack.

As Paul mention, pthreads would probably be a good start if you want to do something more intelligent. You need to start thinking asynchronously.


My desire for this is basically because my ISP is NAT'd to hell - I have no way of getting UDP packets back to my network, as the ISP gives me a non-routable address.

Why go with this ISP? Well it's about 3x faster than the DSL I can get in the sticks over a 3G signal, with unlimited bandwidth and usage.

But sucks for HECnet..

Hello!
Sampsa all kidding aside who did you pick? I can think of several of
the names but probably not available where you are.

Oh and the gang left Thursday last. They are around Dave's place.
