Hello all. So I just thought I would come in here and ask you all a couple of questions regarding edcast. First off let me tell you my situation. I am managing a radio station and my icecast server the way I have it set up the source of which the broadcaster connects to has to have a username and password for a mount point that is being passed through the server. Basically these are all mountpoint level security settings. The problem that I'm seeing here is edcast does not allow a source username to be passed through. So in my mount section I do have a source username and a source password set. It goes something like this. <username>hackme</username> password>hackmemore</password> If you all would like the .xml file let me know as I'm not going to do it right now, but would I just either delete the "<username></username>" field, or just put it as stated above in surrounding quotes so that edcast will work happy with at least the source password that I set for such said mountpoint?
