>Organization:
Kendra Electronic Wonderworks, Stoneham, MA 02180 (http://www.kew.com)
>Environment:

	mpd port installed on FBSD 4.1; Netgraph not loaded in kernel.


>Description:

	Running with Kernel Secure level at 2 results in the following message from MPD:

		mpd: [pptp] can't attach pptpgre node: Operation not permitted 

	Since the man page for init(8) makes no mention of such a restriction (and the
	restriction seems foolish for a running firewall), the error should not occur.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Run mpd at secure level 2.

>Fix:

	Workaround: Run with raising kernel secure level disabled.

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed 
State-Changed-By: dd 
State-Changed-When: Sat Jun 9 17:24:34 PDT 2001 
State-Changed-Why:  
init(8) does mention a restriction on loading modules, which is what mpd 
is trying to do.  This is entirely appropriate.
