Hi Geoff, My use case is that I have put an icecast server in the cloud. I want to stream my stuff on one port and let my friend stream their stuff on a different port. I would worry that if they accidentally entered the same port as mine in the source client (eg Mixxx) - eg http://serverip:8000/mystream8000 and http://serverip:8000/friendsstream8001- it would screw up both our streams. Basically I'm looking at this like a safety mechanism, particularly if I want to add a 3rd stream for another friend. Regards, Chris.

Hey Chris, That's not really how Icecast mountpoints work. You'd be much better off doing source level authentication per-mountpoint. Using different ports doesn't help your situation unless you're doing some fancy firewalling but if you have a username/password pair entered per-mountpoint in the config you can separate any number of mountpoints securely. Just note that some source clients (not sure about Mixxx, I use Cool Mic) only allow a 'source' username for connecting to Icecast. I believe you can still specify a password per-mountpoint without username.
