Description of problem: When running icecast from the yum repository on Fedora 9 the icecast daemon does not bind to the ip address and port combination that is expected. Instead it chooses a random port to create the socket, as detailed in the examples. The problem itself is resolvable by doing a clean source install of the icecast program using icecast version 2.3.2 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.3.1 How reproducible: Installing and configuring icecast from the YUM repository on the system then set the binding sections to match the host IP, as example follows: <listen-socket> <port>8000</port> <bind-address>192.168.10.9</bind-address> </listen-socket> <listen-socket> <port>8000</port> <bind-address>127.0.0.1</bind-address> </listen-socket> Steps to Reproduce: 1.yum install icecast 2. configure the /etc/icecast.xml file according to server bindings requriements 3. service icecast start 4. netstat -anltp | grep ice Actual results: tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:50347 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 14950/icecast tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:47123 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 14950/icecast tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:37591 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 14950/icecast tcp 0 0 192.168.10.9:38523 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 14950/icecast Expected results: tcp 0 0 192.168.10.2:8000 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 4609/icecast tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:8000 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 4609/icecast tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:8015 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 4609/icecast tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:8016 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 4609/icecast tcp 0 0 192.168.10.2:8000 192.168.10.2:46062 ESTABLISHED 4609/icecast tcp 0 0 192.168.10.2:8000 192.168.10.2:52417 ESTABLISHED 4609/icecast tcp 0 0 192.168.10.2:8000 192.168.10.2:46060 ESTABLISHED 4609/icecast tcp 0 0 192.168.10.2:8000 192.168.10.2:38873 ESTABLISHED 4609/icecast tcp 0 0 192.168.10.2:8000 192.168.10.2:52419 ESTABLISHED 4609/icecast tcp 0 0 192.168.10.2:8000 192.168.10.2:35130 ESTABLISHED 4609/icecast Additional info: The threads from the icecast mailing list related to this issue, and its resolution is located at http://www.archivum.info/icecast@xiph.org/2008-07/msg00008.html
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
