Dunno - but it doesn't work for me:

$ uname -msr
FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE i386
$ erl
Erlang R13B01 (erts-5.7.2) [source] [smp:2:2] [rq:2] [async-threads:0] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false]

Eshell V5.7.2  (abort with ^G)

{ok,#Port<0.427>}
2> inet:setopts(U, [{active, false}]).
ok
3> gen_udp:connect(U, "127.0.0.1", 12345).
ok
4> gen_udp:send(U, <<1,2,3>>).
ok

{error,timeout}               (after ~ 1 second)
