[icecast] Newbee questions...

[tcheer at gmx.de]

Hi all,

This is my first contribution to this ML. I would like to post 2 questions:

1.
I have just installed ices  0.2.3 and icecast 1.3.12 and I am trying to 
run them.
In my etc/icecast.const i have kept the 3 default passwords for the 
encoder, admin and oper (hackme) and modified my etc/ices.conf as follow:
...
     <!-- Encoder password on the icecast server -->
      <Password>hackme</Password>
...
But I have the problem that ices fails to run properly due to a bad 
password error

ices.log:
 Error during send: Error opening: No such file or directory
...
Error during send: Mount failed on http://127.0.0.1:8000/ices, error: 
Could not login on server. Server message: ERROR - Bad Password
Error during send: Mount failed on http://127.0.0.1:8000/ices, error: 
Could not login on server. Server message: ERROR - Bad Password
Error during send: Mount failed on http://127.0.0.1:8000/ices, error: 
Could not login on server. Server message: ERROR - Bad Password
Error during send: Mount failed on http://127.0.0.1:8000/ices, error: 
Could not login on server. Server message: ERROR - Bad Password
Too many stream errors, giving up

2.
It is sayed that there is a mkpasswd.c file thatcomes with the sources 
for generating crypted passwords, it seems to be missing!

I would appreciate some help.

Thanks
