I'm assuming the mountpoint is actually /nfa2 and not /nfa2.m3u.  This is 
what you should be pointing at.  Winamp and Shoutcast are expecting an MP3 
stream and aren't getting one.

This backs up my theory.

Shoutcast actually accepts source connections on listenport+1, but you 
should still enter listenport into your ices config.  Not sure what else to 
suggest.
