Yes, set SourceAuthMax=1

Then only one person can authenticate and use the stream at a time, this can be any number and 0 makes it unlimited.

I have actually not tested that I would think there would be a conflict in the naming. Also with the way services read from win32 I had difficulty separating the conf file. Let me know what you find if you try it though.

The log files already do this

For example, "LogFile=logs/%Y/%B/%d-steamcast ...

You are connecting to the wrong port.

the log analyzer is not capable of this at this time because it is an unfiltered view of your stats. It was never written with the intention of being utilized by statistic organizations, just for the station owner's information. Also that level of filtering should be done at the server if the bots ...

to specify a different config file pass the -c argument followed by the path to the config file.

ex: ./steamcast -c /some/config/file/steamcast.conf

which flavor of linux is this?

Total Duration is basically a TTSL or the Total time spent listening by all listeners combined. Total Listeners is a count of all listeners in the report range. Total Unique is the total amount of unique hosts which have connected to the server in the report range.

post the log where the fault occurs.

the stream stopped sending from the master server for some reason, might be network related.

with icecast relays you need to specify the mount, no stream runs without a mount in icecast.

yea do not edit the file with notepad, notepad edited files are not going to be parsed by steamcast properly because of the differences in line termination from linux to windows. I would suggest using another editor or vi or nano in the nix environment.

Disregard this if you use the win32 version ...

life on the personal side has taken quite a stumble the last couple of months so I have gotten off schedule but I hope to bring something out to you guys soon.

No I haven't but if you have any specific questions I would be more then willing to explain what they mean.

It looks like you are trying to stream to the wrong source port. Use the server's source port to stream OGG.
