Hello Thomas.
That is, I agree, I was paying attention to only one part ! :))
A few days ago I was surprised to see how easily the mountpoints are
created, even video.

Exactly, the relays are considered as sources and I had to increase the
number of sources.
If the number of sources is less than needed, the Relay Server sources
take precedence over the Master Servers sources (I should try this
again).

Now I'm thinking that when "xx.ogg" not work may have been <on_demand>
seted in "1" and this may have been the reason that did not occur the
mountpoint (I should try this again).
During the test I had the Relay Server with a mountpoint due to Ices2
(both running on the same machine) and two Master Servers with relayed
mountpoints (two separate machines).

At this time I can but I SHOULD NOT DO tests on the servers :))) I will
try tomorrow morning.
Thank you very much !!
