If BSD supports it why can't Linux?

Yes. My code works great on HP-UX but does nothing on
Linux. It will not compile because it can't find
SO_REUSEPORT. I don't have the exact error message at
hand, but I could send it if it would help. If I
switch to SO_REUSEADDR the code compiles but the
server does not receive anything.

Thanks,
