[PD] oggcast~ streaming on Debian

Hallo,

I'm trying to get ogg streaming from Pd working on Debian. Icecast2 is
installed and also is functioning at least using ices2 as streamer.
But I cannot get Olaf's oggcast~ in the version of the pd-externals
("ogg/vorbis streaming client version 0.2h") package to connect to the
server. I'm setting the correct password but still connecting doesn't
work. using the help-oggcast~.pd file, Pd reports on attempted
"connect localhost 8000": 

oggcast~: ogg/vorbis streaming client version 0.2g, written by Olaf Matthes
oggcast~: set buffer to 512k bytes
oggcast~: encoding 2 channels @ 44100 Hz
oggcast~: connecting to port 8000
oggcast~: logging in to IceCast2 server...
oggcast~: logged in to http://127.0.0.1:8000/puredata.ogg
Pd: signal 13
error: oggcast~: could not send ogg body to server (-1)
oggcast~: could not init encoder
oggcast~: connection closed
oggcast~: connection closed due to initialisation error

And in icecast2's error.log I get: 

[2003-09-13  14:32:24] INFO connection/_handle_source_request Source logging in at mountpoint "/pure
data.ogg"
[2003-09-13  14:32:24] INFO connection/_handle_source_request Source (/puredata.ogg) attempted to lo
gin with invalid or missing password

In access.log I have: 

127.0.0.1 - - [13/Sep/2003:14:33:31 +0200] "SOURCE /puredata.ogg ICE/1.0" 401 115 "-" "-" 0

which is a bit strange: when using ices2 I do not get a message like
this from the ices client, I only get it when using alsaplayer to
listen to the ices2 stream.


I made totally sure that the password is indeed correct by double and
triple checking. Anyone has an idea what else could be wrong here? 

ciao
