It it true that MPD server think that all clients behind a NAT server have the same IP address(external address). It doesn't allow more than one client behind a NAT server to connect with it at one time. One solution is that NAT server supports RSIP protocol. for further info, please refer RFC RSIP. if there is a RSIP daemon in NAT, that is ok. --- Archie Cobbs <archie@dellroad.org> wrote: > Elliott Perrin writes: > > I was wondering if it is possible to have multiple > systems behind a NAT > > connect to an mpd PPTP system.
