FWIW, mpd versions 3.7 through 3.13 on FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE, 4.8-RELEASE
and 4.8-STABLE work just fine for both incoming connections from Win2K
clients and outgoing connections to a Win2K RRAS (sorry, I don't have
enough information about the RRAS itself, all they've given us is an
IP address, username and password :)

G'luck,
Peter
