My linux gateway-box works well, but to be complete i was missing messenger support in the NAT. So i started to configure upnp and linux-igd (http://upnp.sourceforge.net/ and http://linux-igd.sourceforge.net/ respectively) I followed the doc on linux-igd and recompiled to gentoo package of upnp as described in the faq. Everything works well at this point. ----- excerpt of the doc ------- Untar the Intel UPnP SDK, but before you compile and install, you will need to make one change for Windows Messenger to work properly. Under the upnpsdk tree, the file src/ssdp/ssdplib.c, on line 406, the following line needs to be changed from: SelfAddr.sin_addr.s_addr = inet_addr(SSDP_IP); to: SelfAddr.sin_addr.s_addr = htonl(INADDR_ANY); ------------------------------ I then emerge linx-igd, configure the /etc/linuxigd/ conf file and i start the daemon, which refuses to run ! I see for 1 or 2 seconds [upnp] in 'ps ax' and then nothing, i must run manually '/etc/init.d/upnp zap' to clean my config. If i compile upnp with emerge without modifying the source, upnp starts correctly, but messenger does not work... So, in anyway, messenger does nor works :-( shame. Of course if needed, the maintainer of the package can contact me to make tests, i would gladly help ! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge upnp 2. emerge linux-igd 3. /etc/init.d/upnp start Actual Results: nothing happened, this is the problem ;-) Expected Results: The daemon should have been lauched ?

This issue has been addressed in more recent versions of linux-igd. I shall bump this package later this evening, it will go to version 0.92, rather than 0.75 which you are using now. Can you please verify it working, or not, once this is done. I will post here once it has been bumped. Thanks
this has now been bumped in portage. please install using: ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge linux-igd It will install version 0.92, please test this out for me and tell me of your experiences. Please use vanilla builds of both upnp and linux-igd, code changes shouldn't be required anymore.
closing until hearing back on test results from user.
