I start the sound daemon with `esd -tcp -public -nobeeps &'. In XMMS, I just pick the Esound output plugin in the preferences, and configure it to point to the audio `server'. I've also been able to get RealPlayer to output over the network by setting the ESPEAKER environment variable before starting the program (you also have to set up RealPlayer to use ESD output in preferences). -- _ _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ ___ _ _ __ Away.
