You shouldn't need this, unless you plan to control it from outside your own network. mpd has minimal security, so unless you have a good reason it's probably not a good idea. When I said "possibly open the port on the firewall" I meant if the computer running mpd has a restrictive firewall, not the firewall to your whole network. -- Rev Simon Rumble <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> www.rumble.net "Impact: Non-privileged primitive users can cause the total destruction of your entire invasion fleet and gain unauthorized access to files." - CERT Advisory CA-96.13 - Alien/OS Vulnerability -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
