[Icecast] Question about replacing the web interface with an audio stream

[Yahav Shasha]

Well it wont be the index anymore, if this works you can rename the index
file to have it accessible..
If that doesnt work, you can try to have apache redirect to the stream url,
might work since many clients will honor that and follow that redirect.
