The problem is that OSX 10.7 added the constant, but did not correctly implement the feature. This causes the setsockopt call to fail. The solution to the problem is to not use MCAST_JOIN_GROUP on OSX. Test script: --------------- <?php if (!extension_loaded('sockets')) { die('skip sockets extension not available.'); } if (PHP_OS !== 'Darwin') { die('is not OSX.'); } $socket = socket_create(AF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, SOL_UDP); socket_bind($socket, '0.0.0.0', 31057); $so = socket_set_option($socket, IPPROTO_IP, MCAST_JOIN_GROUP, array( "group" => '224.0.0.251', "interface" => 0, )); var_dump($so); Expected result: ---------------- bool(true) Actual result: -------------- PHP Warning: socket_set_option(): unable to set socket option [22]: Invalid argument in /Users/igor/code/react-mdns-userland/src/React/Mdns/Client.php on line 27 PHP Stack trace: PHP 1. {main}() /Users/igor/code/react-mdns-userland/examples/client.php:0 PHP 2.
