Cool, which script does stuff like this get added to? I never did get how all that symbolic linking and priority stuff on when to have such things load. I know for some reason debian just won't compile a lot of programs, as the kernel source headers are messed up from most ways other more popular distros like redhat and slackware use. I was thinking of getting a CD of redhat, but where I checked wanted $170.00 for the server version, the only one they sell. 12:41 AM 10/15/00 +1100, you wrote: >Hi: > >If I understand you correctly, you want to be able to listen to shoutcast >servers and windows media servers via IP masquerading.
