Icecast - Aug 2004 - Its my first time installing icecast...and i'm having problems

I've installed icecast. Then I run the server in the bg. I can encode to it
from winamp just fine, but I cant seem to stream from it. The icecast
verbose messages say "Kicking unknown #3 (hostmask) [no encoder]" or
something along those lines. Does this have something to do with my
deny/allow settings? Also, when I do a 'sources' it lists that there is
a
source on mountpoint 0.

The web admin function isnt working either. I try to connect to it and the
verbose logs say "denied www admin (hostmask) [no mountfile]". What is
a
mountfile and how do I specify one?

Any help would be greatly appreciated..

Cheers,
-Ian

Winamp lies.  When it asks you for 'port' it uses port+1.  So if icecast
is on port 8000, you must tell winamp port 7999.

Or alternatively you can enable both ports 8000 and 8001 in the
icecast.conf config file, which _should_ have been enabled by default.

Both ports are enabled. Here is the actual ouput, maybe someone can make
more sense of it.

This is what happens when I try to stream (note that the encoder has been
accepted the line before):
-> [13/Dec/2001:13:46:42] [Bandwidth: 0.000000MB/s] [Sources: 0] [Clients:
0] [Admins: 1] [Uptime: 1 seconds]
-> [13/Dec/2001:13:47:35] Accepted encoder on mountpoint /icy_0 from
cn387567-a.frenchtwn1.de.home.com. 1 sources connected
-> [13/Dec/2001:13:48:13] Kicking unknown 2
[cn387567-a.frenchtwn1.de.home.com] [No encoder], connected for 0 seconds

This is what happens when I try to log into the admin:
-> [13/Dec/2001:13:52:41] [Bandwidth: 0.000000MB/s] [Sources: 1] [Clients:
0] [Admins: 1] [Uptime: 6 minutes]
-> [13/Dec/2001:13:53:21] No mountfile found, refusing access to WWW admin
for cn387567-a.frenchtwn1.de.home.com
-> [13/Dec/2001:13:53:21] Kicking unknown 3
[cn387567-a.frenchtwn1.de.home.com] [No mountfile found], connected for 0
seconds

Thanks
