Actually, you DON'T need the aalsa xmms plugin (which is good, since
it's no longer available, AFAIK). If you edit /etc/alsa/alsa-base.conf
there is a line near the top that says "startosslayer=false". Change
that to true and OSS programs just work automagically.

I'm not digging up a comfortable explanation to this. It looks like
TCP_wrappers just restricts usage of TCP access to daemons and doesn't
affect packet filtering at all in the kernel, so if I am configuring a
firewall with only local access, for instance, I could just leave the
