[PD] oggcast~ streaming on Debian

Hi Frank,

it seems Icecast2 people changed the login scheme several times. It
works with my (windows) version of Icecast2, I never tried it with a
current CVS release but I remember August having reported a similar
problem.
Could you please email me the ices2 sources you use (or even better:
just the file that does the login) because I need something to 'steal'
the login procedure from. I guess it's just not up to date in oggcast~.
- BTW, did you download Icecast2 server from CVS or are you using the
versions included with debian? I'm just wondering because the login
scheme works here (on win, as I said) and also works with JRoar server
on Linux.

Olaf
