Hi

A problem is with the root privileges right? I think a third party tool may help.

"Personally, I don't feel like creating a kernel patch and boxing it through lkml.
I'm afraid this one is a WONTFIX until someone implements a SO_BROADCAST_RECV
for us in the kernel that allows us to tell a socked bound to a specific ip
address to  receive broadcasts coming in on the device that owns the IP address
our socket is bound to."

This third party tool can provide this. So WINE communicates with this tool and
the tool goes to the kernel.

It's not the best way, but it can work or?

I'm not a kernel hacker, but when there is a way, I have to look at it. ;-)
