Ports/net/mpd is probably the best choice considering you have FreeBSD installed on both gateways. Get familiar with this port, its configuration is not so difficult. You could even encrypt and/or compress both links to gain even more speed and security (if the external server is on a fast, secure line and has a fast CPU). You should probably sign up with mpd-users mailing list at http://sourceforge.net/projects/mpd. Good luck! Best wishes, Andrew P.
