I used an underscore ( _ ) and a couple of upper case characters for the
passwords but after taking them out it didn't change the situation.
<p><p>I had originally hardcoded the hostname address as
'10.0.0.5' (where both
Icecast and Ices is running), and when set up like this, the client would
hang.
I have since changed it so that the hostname is now 'localhost' and now
the
client doesn't hang, but will continually retry connection attemps only to
fail with a "Login Failed" message from Ices.
With the Hostname as 'localhost' Icecast shows
--------------------------------------
[localhost] [Failed to execute admin command]
[localhost] [Bad Password] [encoder]
[localhost] [Bad Password] [encoder]
.
.
.
[localhost] [Bad Password] [encoder]
--------------------------------------
<p><p>Where Ices reports:
-------------------------------------
Mount failed on http://localhost:8001/stream, error: Socket error
Mount failed on http://localhost:8001/stream, error: Login failed
Mount failed on http://localhost:8001/stream, error: Login failed
.
.
.
Mount failed on http://localhost:8001/stream, error: Login failed
-------------------------------------
<p>Could it be that when Ices initiates a connection for the first time,
Icecast attempts to run a admin command which fails and thus fubar's any
other connection attemp from Ices?
