Additional useful informations:
* icecast2 is listening at port 80 and is therefore started as root,
dropping its privileges hopefully after startup
* ices (v 0.4), used as streaming source client, is compiled from source
including liblame since the debian package supports ogg-vorbis only due
to license conflicts;
* configuration files:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
"/etc/default/icecast2"
# Defaults for icecast2 initscript
# sourced by /etc/init.d/icecast2
# installed at /etc/default/icecast2 by the maintainer scripts
#
# This is a POSIX shell fragment
#
# Full path to the server configuration file
CONFIGFILE="/etc/icecast2/icecast.xml"
# Name or ID of the user and group the daemon should run under
#USERID=icecast2
#GROUPID=icecast
USERID=root
GROUPID=root
# Edit /etc/icecast2/icecast.xml and change at least the passwords.
# Change this to true when done to enable the init.d script
ENABLE=true
