ncmpc connects to a MPD running on a machine on the local network.
By default, ncmpc connects to localhost:6600. This can be
changed either at compile-time, or by exporting the MPD_HOST and
MPD_PORT environment variables, or by the command line options --host
and --port
:
ncmpc --host=musicserver --port=44000
