Hi all!
I just finished an install of icecast/iceS but I'm having problems. I
followed the documentation provided here:
http://melmoth.dyndns.org/stream/doc/
to the letter and this is the problem I'm having:
Everything seems to function (icecast runs, iceS runs) and it generates
messages such as:
[root@icecast stream]# bin/ices conf/ices-playlist.xml
[2003-06-04 06:43:17] INFO ices-core/main ices started...

[2003-06-04 06:43:17] INFO encode/encode_initialise Encoder initialising in
VBR mode: 2 channel(s), 44100 Hz, quality 3.000000
When I do a netstat -an:
[root@icecast stream]# netstat -an
Active Internet connections (servers and established)
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State

x.x.x.x:39112 x.x.x.x:8000 TIME_WAIT
(obviously, 'x.x.x.x' is the proper IP address for the server).
The dynamic webpages work and look fine but when I try and connect using
WinAmp3 (x.x.x.x:8000), I get no sound and I get the display fluctuating between
"Prebuffering" and the name of the stream.
Here is a dump of my access.log:
x.x.x.x - - [04/Jun/2003:06:58:01 -0700] "GET / HTTP/1.0" 404 109

<p>and here is error.log:

Can anyone help me out here since the docs are pretty lame ?
