The problem with livecast is the licence. It's not that expensive, but I
am in the 'network' division; not in the streaming division; so my boss
does not want to pay for it.
Would it me difficult (for me) to set up a version of the server that is
very limitted (say, just play the same file over and over again).
I'm currently more a computer-'user' (I do programming, but mainly in
perl), but this could be great way to refresh my programming-knowledge on
the 'low-level languages' (;-)) like C++.
Can you give me hint where to start? What files are the main 'core' of the
streaming-server?

It doesn't compile 'like that' in a OpenBSD; as you need some linux
thread-libraries. I don't know enough of OpenBSD porting to see how this
can be fixed.
Cheerio! Kr. Bonne.
