Alan,

Tks for your answer, I have downloaded icecast , also uwere saying that the 
encoder comes with rh 8.0 ogg vorbis how would i get to it ??

As i said i did  download icecast but something does not seem to go right , 
i did go thru the readme as u can see down below but it gets stuck at the 
configure bcos simply it does not exist . Do u see where is the issue ??


ICECAST README:

It is known to build on linux and win32, and should be easily ported to 
other
unix platforms (we expect this will require some autoconf work, though).

Run
   ./configure
   make
   make install

To build and install this release.

Documentation is mostly missing at this point. The example config file 
should
explain most of the features available (but note that the directory services
are not yet available).

You just need suitable encoders (eg ogg vorbis which is included with
Red Hat) and a streaming ogg server (eg icecast2). You can do the same
with mp3 but you may have to pay large patent licensing fees in some
locations (notably the USA) to do so.
