[Rfu-barnraising] Icecast Server Successful Stream.

[Andy Gunn]

that is great!  if a computer is available (it could be anything around a pentium 2 - 400mhz, with 256mb of ram, give or take a bit), we can set up an encoding machine during the barnraising.  it can either be a linux box, or if there are more copies of windows around, we can use that.

the host name can also be fudged a bit - a dynamic dns updater can be used.  something along the lines of http://www.dyndns.com/ - which uses a little free client to update the ip address whenever it changes.  we can punch a hole in the firewall if need be, as well.  as long as the server has a static ip address or hostname, then we are all set.

if it gets down to the line, we can use my laptop to do the encoding.
