this doesn't look like it is about upstream Icecast but the Ubuntu<br>
package. Therefore best addressed at the Ubuntu bug tracker.<br>
<br>
However: There are some Debian based packages out there that manage the<br>
password as part of the package configuration. My best guess here is<br>
re-installing triggered the package manager to sync it's stored<br>
password back into the config file. If that is the case maybe it is<br>
best to manage the password within the package manager?<br>
<br>
Over here at Debian that is debconf. And it asks me on install if I<br>
want to have Icecast managed by it. If I select the managed mode I get:<br>
$ debconf-show icecast2<br>
* icecast2/icecast-setup: true<br>
* icecast2/hostname: localhost<br>
* icecast2/adminpassword: hackme<br>
* icecast2/sourcepassword: hackme<br>
* icecast2/relaypassword: hackme<br>
<br>
So maybe you can also just disable that by setting icecast2/icecast-<br>
setup to false? But again, I would like to refer you to the Ubuntu<br>
package maintainer/bug tracker here as all the above is guesswork based<br>
on how things are on Debian.<br>
<br>
Still hope that helped.<br>
<br>
<br>
With best regards,<br>
<br>
