One fellow offered a shell script. It's true that another guy thought that wouldn't be a good idea. Did they forget to cc: you? It doesn't appear so...... If you think a shell script is not the thing for the reasons mentioned, you might use crontab....depending on what user icecast needs to be run as, put the following into their crontab.... @reboot /path/to/icecast -flag(s) argument(s) If icecast has an apache-style APACI program, you might call it at shutdown to kill the daemon..... @shutdown command Use 'crontab -e' to edit your/the crontab....
