I have followed this tutorial to install icecast on Centos 5.5,

but cannot find the ices package for sending the audio to icecast for it to stream.
I would like to send the data as mp3, if there is a suitable program to do this.
I just went through this, and could not find a package for ices. In the end I downloaded and compiled DarkIce (once the development libraries were installed) http://code.google.com/p/darkice
Only thing that caught me out, was that you need to specify the output device in the DarkIce config file as an icecast2 server, or you get a message about opening underlying sink error.
Now happily streaming mp3 data.
Thanks David.
Will take a look at that too.
