Hi. We have an application where we are increasing the UDP socket receive buffer size using setsockopt. Are the maximum values documented or obtainable by any other method than experimentation? Assuming one wanted the maximum possible buffer, how should this be programmed? Empirically, the maximum appears to be approximately 52000 bytes for SunOS 4.1.1, and 61000 for AIX 3.1. Thanks in advance, Andy
