Streaming audio from CentOS 4.4?

[dwighte.chadbourne at stopandshop.com (Dwight E Chadbourne)]

"I've set up a streaming audio server, connecting my scanner at home to my 
laptop
running XP Home w/Ogg Vorbis and Icecast.  Then, at work, I use Realplayer 
to
listen during the day or when I'm at someone else's computer and want to
monitor activity and don't have a radio with me.    The Ogg/Icecast setup 
has
worked well under Windows.

What would be the equivalent setup for Linux?   For Windows, it has been 
pretty
painless.   Is there the same amount of simplicity for Centos/Linux?

I'll be doing some testing tonight.

Thanks for any insight.

Scott"

Hi.  I was reading about Icecast a while ago but never installed.  Neat to 
hear it works.  I think the reason I balked was that the release (at the 
time) appeared to be over a year old.  But now that I look at the nightly 
snapshots they appear to have activity and the forums are busy.  Please 
let us know how it goes on Linux.
