[icecast] Problems with ices

Hi,

I compiled the latest version of ices from cvs, but I have some problems
with it. When I start it up, I only get the error "Failed to read config
file "/usr/local/icecast/etc/ices.conf""

My /usr/local/icecast/etc/ices.conf looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ices:Configuration

_exit(0)                                = ?

Seems to me that he reads the beginning of the file correctly because of the
read(4, "<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\n<ices:Conf"...,
16384) = 910
but he doesn't seem to get the rest.

Any idea what the problem could be? Version of libshout is 1.0.9, system is
SuSE 8.0

[icecast] playlist streamer

I've been running an icecast server for a couple of years now with 
live data. I'm finally needing a playlist.

I'd like to create the playlist from data in a MySQL database. We'd 
like to be able to write the playlist out from our own code, and have 
the stream go on forever.

The MP3 files are on our website, which is a Win2k machine. This 
machine does run Perl, and that's a likely candidate for the playlist 
coding.

Any suggestions on what to stream with? WinAMP with some set of 
plugins? If so, which plugins?

Automatic display of current playlist would be a nice bonus.
