Icecast - Nov 2004 - Gettin station Ident played on connectiong to stream

Hi,

Is it possible to get a Station Ident to play on connecting to the stream 
using Icecast?, before 'really' connecting to the actual station, if you
see what I mean...

Any more information required, please just say!  (I am new to all this!!)

Thanks,
David Lea

I do this using .m3u playlists.    But I think you mean a way all streams 
get the intro even if someone connects directly to the mount point without 
using the .m3u files.
