[ubuntu-uk] Streaming to a shoutcast server

[Byte Soup]

Hi Guys,

Thanks for your advice, Ive found that Ice2 only streams to a icecast
server, at least thats what I was told on #icecast irc. Ive found "darkice"
and "darksnow" in the repos, but i seem to be having problems with them,
hopefull its just a config problem. Has anyone used "darkice" successfully?

Mark
