+The MiniUPnP daemon (MiniUPnPd) is software which supports the
+UPnP Internet Gateway Device (IGD) specifications and the NAT Port
+Mapping Protocol (NAT-PMP).
+
+UPnP-IGD and NAT-PMP are used to improve internet connectivity for
+devices behind a NAT router. Any peer to peer network application
+such as games, IM, etc. can benefit from a NAT router supporting
+UPnP and/or NAT-PMP.
+
+Edit the config files before starting (including the .sh files)
+
+This requires libiptc.
