Hi

I have just starting using icecast and while I have 1 mount working fine with authenication I wish to have two mounts working with the same auth file. I cannot seem to find a way to get two mounts at all. I wish to either have a different mount name e.g. stream.nsv and stream2.nsv or different ports for each mount (either is fine).

How can I do this? They are shoutcast style sources as I am streaming NSV files from NSVtools.

This is my icecast.xml file at the moment:



Code:
<!-- This config file can be used to configure icecast
     in shoutcast compatibility mode which will allow
     you to connect the Shoutcast DSP (or other Nullsoft
     encoders such as the NSV encoder). Note this is just
     a minimal config, check the main icecast.xml.dist file
     for a complete list of possible configuration options -->
<icecast>
    <limits>
        <sources>2</sources>
    </limits>
    <authentication>
        <!-- Configure the shoutcast DSP to use this password -->
        <!-- This is used for icecast's web interface -->
        <admin-user>admin</admin-user>
        <admin-password>sandrabuxton</admin-password>
    </authentication>
    <directory>
        <yp-url-timeout>15</yp-url-timeout>
        <yp-url>http://dir.xiph.org/cgi-bin/yp-cgi</yp-url>
    </directory>
    <!-- This is the manufactured mount name for your shoutcast
         compatible stream. Since the shoutcast DSP (and NSV encoder)
         cannot specify a mountpoint, you must enter it here -->
    <!-- This is the hostname other people will use to connect to your server.
    It affects mainly the urls generated by Icecast for playlists and yp
    listings. -->
    <hostname>localhost</hostname>
    <!-- You MUST define 2 ports, port and port +1 -->
    <listen-socket>
        <!-- Configure the shoutcast DSP with *this* port
             the shoutcast DSP actually will connect the
             encoder to this port + 1 -->
        <port>6500</port>
    </listen-socket>
    <listen-socket>
        <!-- This port *must* be one larger than the one defined
             above and defined as 'shoutcast-compat' -->
        <port>6501</port>
        <shoutcast-compat>1</shoutcast-compat>
    </listen-socket>
     <fileserve>1</fileserve>

<shoutcast-mount>/stream2.nsv</shoutcast-mount>
<mount>
<password>brooke1</password>
<mount-name>/stream2.nsv</mount-name>
        <authentication type="htpasswd">
                <option name="filename" value="auth"/>
                <option name="allow_duplicate_users" value="0"/>
        </authentication>
</mount>

<shoutcast-mount>/stream.nsv</shoutcast-mount>
<mount>
<mount-name>/stream.nsv</mount-name>

        <authentication type="htpasswd">
                <option name="filename" value="auth"/>
                <option name="allow_duplicate_users" value="0"/>
        </authentication>
</mount>

    <listen-socket>
        <!-- Configure the shoutcast DSP with *this* port
             the shoutcast DSP actually will connect the
             encoder to this port + 1 -->
        <port>6600</port>
    </listen-socket>
    <listen-socket>
        <!-- This port *must* be one larger than the one defined
             above and defined as 'shoutcast-compat' -->
        <port>6601</port>

The nsv source clients are limited as they only follow the shoutcast spec which gives no indication of the mountpoint to use. Currently you'll need to run 2 icecasts each with 2 ports each for the nsv source client to connect on.

I do have some in work in progress that should allow for multiple shoutcast ports to be used by a single icecast. This would be enabled defining a listen-socket on say 8000 with a shoutcast-mount set and that would automatically configure port 8001 as a related port. All mountpoint settings as as normal from then on. If you are interested in trying that out then build http://mediacast1.com/~karl/testing/icecast-2.3-kh4b.tar.gz
