I thought I wrote a chapter for the Features section of the manual
already? Or were you going to include it in the main installation section?

So, presumably you are unable to connect to the normal MP servers?

As I recall, the current MP code ignores one of these settings and does
something else, but I can't recall what.
You may therefore need to run the MP server as well and connect to that. I
don't think you can run both the server and FG on the same machine without
some effort - they end up having port contention.
of course, it then difficult to tell if things are working if you only
have one MP client!
