[Debconf-video] howto setup video relays for debconf6

[Holger Levsen <debian@layer-acht.org>]

Hi,

just in time, we set up the streaming from debconf6. Hopefully it will work 
tomorrow and the following week... ;-)

You need to install icecast2, we provide icecast2 backports for sarge for i386 
and amd64 at http://layer-acht.org/dc6video/ - please tell us if you need 
other archs.

Attached are two files, the file icecast2 needs to be copied to /etc/default/, 
the file icecast.xml needs to be copied to /etc/icecast2/ - then you can just 
start icecast2 by running "/etc/init.d/icecast2 start". 

You need to open your firewall on port 8000 incoming and outgoing _TCP_.

Then please send us a reply "ok", otherwise your IP will not be added to 
*.video.debconf.org DNS. Thanks.

The schedule for the talks are availabe at www.debconf.org - have fun watching 
us in Oaxtepec :-) (If everything works... :)


regards,
	Ben Hutchings

             it also significantly increases latency between the source
             client and listening client.  For low-latency setups, you
             might want to disable this. -->
