The .m3u file is automatically generated, you don't need to do anything.  
Just point your listeners at your stream's url with .m3u on the end.  
IE, if your server is at myhost.com on port 8000 and your mountpoint is 
/mystream.ogg then point your listeners to:
 http://myhost.com:8000/mystream.ogg.m3u

Easy as cake. :-)
