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

[webmaster at berean-biblechurch.org]

John, 

I think Yahav has the right idea.  I did something similar because I
didn't want to expose the web interface to the world.  I redirected root
"/" to a "/webpage.html" that redirects to our website.  If directing to
/mount doesn't work, then maybe using a local webpage to redirect to
your stream would work.

Adding SSL support is what my end goal was when I started messing with all this, but it doesn't look like it's going to be as easy as I'd originally thought. It seems that mobile web browsers are starting to complain when a website doesn't use https, so I thought I'd try to turn on SSL.
