[Icecast] I can listen to a stream locally but not from anywhere else.

That is the problem for external connects...thanks.

the .m3u contains "http://192.168.5.33:8000/ices.ogg"

which is actually fine for my purposes since I'm not looking
to make this a public stream (I'll just be using it for tunes
at work (via VPN), eventually streaming a live feed from an
XM radio at home).

I've got some more information now after running ethereal:

Itunes in windows will connect and buffer then stop receiving the stream.
Winamp on the same machine will continue accpeting the stream but plays
nothing.
I'm using 128k stereo oggs.

Itunes doesn't play ogg AFAIK

winamp 2.9x/5.x can but remember to append the .ogg extension on the
mountpoint or else it treats it as mp3.

Also don't forget that the full version of WinAmp is required to play 
oggs.  The lite version doesn't support it.  iTunes can play local .ogg 
files but not streams if you download the ogg components from 
qtcomponents.sf.net.  I haven't messed with real player, and I have no 
intention of doing so.
