Icecast dev - Aug 2022 - Icecast 2.5 - Privileged Ports on Ubuntu

What is the recommended procedure to run the beta 2.5 in regards to the 
privileged ports on Ubuntu 20/22?

I do have a current instance running which was installed using the 
apt-install package method so everything sets up and installs from that. 
When I install the make/build 2.5 version it installs and runs fine but 
will not open port 80 for SSL connections. I have read that I can take 
the 2.5 executable and directory and overwrite the current install as 
the system start up files handle the access to those ports. Is this the 
best method right now or is there another way to achieve this?

Good morning,

I recommend not to exchange the binary as those zombie setups tend to
break sooner or later.

 * What you can do: You can copy the unit file and create your own
   based on that with updated paths.
 * Also?you could add a REDIRECT rule via your firewall. That allows
   you to run Icecast on non-privileged ports and the kernel is
   redirecting the traffic from those ports for you.?

? Depending on the complexity of your setup, if you perform directory
submissions, ... you might want to use this together with virtual
listen sockets.

With best regards,
