Hi,

How to configure Icecast Server to use https for source clients and 
listen clients?

Background: I volunteer as studio engineer at a non-profit community 
radio station in the United States. We are using Icecast Server on a 
Raspberry Pi SBC as a means to stream remote content from live music 
events to the station for live broadcast, and for remote monitoring of 
various audio sources within the station.

The station has been given a deadline of November 15 to comply with PCI 
Data Security Standard 
(https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org/standards/pci-dss/) in order to 
continue taking credit card donations to help fund station operations.

I have been asked to configure the Icecast Server to use https.

Is there an online document describing how to do that?

BTW, my background is in audio and FM broadcast, not computer science 
and I am unfamiliar with setting up ssl and using certifications and 
whatnot. So a guide for dummies would be at about my level.

Thank you!
