linux tcp(7) TCP is built on top of IP (see ip(7)). The address formats defined by
ip(7) apply to TCP. TCP supports point-to-point communication only;
broadcasting and multicasting are not supported.
how do you get the distributed bbs i mean BBS with point-to-point communication? you have to have a node to which other nodes can point, like a server.
but if you broadcast to all reachable receivers, you dont have to keep lists of targets, or worry dat others have you as a target
