Hi Juha,

We though about this and while you could do this by default to make it easier, it has implications beyond the use of mediaproxy. Enabling ip forward might conflict with other software or policy (e.g. firewall) and it might be better or sane to let the sysadmin do this knowing the consequences rather than obfuscating an OS level change.

What do you think?

when i boot my ubuntu pc, media-relay does not start because of this:

Jun 5 12:01:19 localhost media-relay[5837]: [-] fatal error: failed to create MediaProxy Relay: IP forwarding is not available or not enabled (check /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward)

is there some reason why /etc/init.d/mediaproxy-relay does not make sure
that /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward contains value 1 before trying
to start media-relay?
