First, get a version of CVS from somewhere. If you're a Redhat weenie, of course try there first. If not, go to http://www.cvshome.org - they have binaries for generic linux as well as RPMs. 2. cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.icecast.org:/cvsroot login 3. Hit <return> for the password (ie, there isn't one). 4. Change to a nice directory you wish to checkout the source into (eg, /usr/src) 5. cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.icecast.org:/cvsroot checkout icecast You will then have a directory named 'icecast' with the latest source within. 6. cd icecast 7. ./autogen.sh 8. make 9. Shutdown any running icecasts you have as we're going to overwrite the binary file. Everything gets put in the usual places in /usr/local/icecast 10. make install This is what worked for me - I hope it will work for everyone else! Just started testing, but I'm still not listed on shoutcast :-( Cheers, Mike Films at 59 Ltd, Bristol. http://www.filmsat59.com --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'icecast-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

I looked into Mark's patch and it seems to be unsafe (try setting up a client which reads much too slowly and see if it bogs down all the other clients). I may have misapplied it or applied it to the wrong version of icecast though, or you could be talking about a different patch.> Brendan/Jack: I think it's enough to warrant a tag and release of 1.3.11./Brendan\/// :) -Brendan --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'icecast-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.
