Icecast - Oct 2015 - Edit icecast.xml while server running

Yes ...Ive configured SAM to the settings in the config file and it tryies
to connect then says invalid password , authentication required...It's the
right password!
I also dont seem to have an icecast GUI for the icecast server that I see in
all the youtube tutorials? Therefor I c
havent figured out how to start the server? I have accessed the admin
interface just fine, but that's about all Ive been able to do so far. Am I
missing something here? I really do appreciate any advice you may have for
me

Regards
Lance

Can you please elaborate this question a bit? I don't seem to understand
what you're asking for.

Thank you.

Thanks for your reply...! It was a permission problem as I had to run as admin
to edit it! The problem I'm having now is connecting to the server with SAM
broadcaster... Is there any other software I need to run other than Sam and
icecast? The server is invalidating the password authentication now?
