It's a bit more than that. Probably the easiest way for you is to look
at integrating libShout into your project. It handles all the specifics.
Or in case of Icecast 2.4.x, implement HTTP PUT.

We're currently working on updated documentation about Icecast source
connections. You'll find it on http://icecast.org soon.
