Hi, A few notes: - Thanks again, Julian! I tried your configuration and now mpd binds to a port!!! You are awesome. Apparently my mistake was that I had only one entry in the mpd.links file. This should be mentioned in the docs, I didn't see it there. Oh yea, and its mpd 3.8, of course :), that silly typo. - Now that perfectly works, (proxy-arp too, is very impressive) I am trying to figure out how to forward broadcast packets from ng0 to fxp0 and vice-versa. Something tells me since this is an interface created by netgraph, it should be possible. I tried the ether.bridge in /usr/share/examples/netgraph/ but I got the same error as I did with tun0: interface ng0 not found. I suppose this is reasonable and intended. - srgtd: I haven't tried mpd with 98 yet, but I did try with an XP client. That works fine. If i end up setting that up, I will let you know. - Thanks everyone!
