[Icecast] Icecast Fedora9 migration problems

Ok, First I want to start off with this isn't the first icecast I have 
cloned, but it is the first where I have not only jumped Fedora release 
versions, but arch types as well (i386 - x86_64) and I am having strange 
problems. The Icecast versions are the same between the old and new servers.

The biggest being is that the server binds to whatever port it feels 
like instead of the bind port specified. The rest of the issues I have 
with Icecast are minor (stats? What stats?) so here is the startup 
script and config I am using:


Icecast 2.3.1:
############Startup Script##########3
#!/bin/sh

#              the icecast multimedia streaming systen.

        RETVAL=$?
        echo
        [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && touch /var/lock/subsys/icecast
        ;;
  stop)
        # Stop daemon.
        echo -n $"Shutting down icecast streaming daemon: "

        ;;

        RETVAL=$?
        ;;

        $0 stop

        echo -n $"Reloading icecast: "

so this is a slave icecast? the master is on port 8001

not sure where these come from, icecast2 will ignore them

You have only specified 1 port so shoutcast source clients won't be 
streaming, but if you do intend to use one of those then you'll want a 
better mountpoint name as this implies a playlist.

level 4 gives more details, but do check the logs and in the case of 
port bindings, use the netstat command.
