Hey all,

I'm also working with Bradley on this, so I was helping him troubleshoot.  He
said the two macs he was using were able to ping each other.

About this broadcast thing, I can't imagine why Mac OS X would not allow
255.255.255.255 broadcasts, do you know of any documentation on this issue?

Also, with 0.6.4 built on Mac OS X 10.7, it was giving an error like:

/proc/net/route: no such file or directory.

I only have access to Mac OS X 10.6 and 10.5, and olsrd 0.6.4 does not give me
that error.  Its odd because olsrd should only be looking for anything in
/proc when there is a Linux kernel, which is definitely not the case in Mac OS
X ;)
