Excuse my double-post, but I asked some questions in the General thread
before I saw this.  [modified slightly]

"Hi - I just added the streamng service to iPeng. I've read your guide,
and I have several questions before I start setting up my music server
for remote access (which I would prefer over Audiogalaxy).

I will be using a VPN. I have a Linksys router (which supports VPN) and
know how to access it's settings.

First - my regular music server is on an Windows XP machine which offers
PTPP. The iPhone settings have that as an option as well. Will that work
with iPeng?

Second - by default my Linksys router is set to DHCP. If I'm using VPN,
do I need to change that to Static IP in the internet setup section ? If
I do so, I then see an address beginning with something other than
192.168 as my Internet IP Address

Third - do I also need a static IP address for my VPN Server? Do I
achieve that by turning off DHCP in my network address server settings
on my router or can I set it for a particular machine. (Couldn't find a
way to do that.) Do I need to be concerned with port forwarding?  I'm
guessing that using VPN moots a lot of this.  

Finally - Setting up VPN on the iPhone do I enter the external IP
Address of the Router as the server?  Logically, somehow the external
device has to find my router on the internet"

I tried searching for VPN in this thread, but the search term may be too
short.  In any event I got no results.
