[Icecast] icecast & china

[Iain Mott]

problem solved - at least the streaming part of it. The computer at the
other end was being blocked when attempting to resolve the <hostname>
setting - and replacing zhongshuobeijing.dyndns.org with the IP address
fixed it. Thanks gareth. Have registered a new domain name for use with
a dynamic dns service - hopefully this will avoid blocks at the user
end. Just have to be careful the update server won't also be blocked.
cheers, iain
