[arch-general] UPnP server for a arch router

[Alishams Hassam]

Hi, I use linux-igd on Debian, the Arch package is at
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=12319 I cannot attest to how
well it works on Arch, however I'm sure it's similar. Very easy to set
up, just putting the interfaces you want it to listen on, in the conf
file and it does the rest. I use it with Shorewall as I'm lazy and
don't like editing iptables rules by hand ;p
