My ices-alsa.xml file that is supposed to configure capture of audio
from line in on my SB AWE 64 ISA sound card is attached.

One thing I'm confused about are the authentication directives.

Another area of trouble is that I'm trying to run ices and icecast
via a non root user.  This works for icecast but it doesn't work for
ices when I want to use the attached xml file.

iceca...@condor:~$ ices ices-alsa.xml

I have done a usermod -Gaudio icecast2, so I don't get the permission
denied problem.  I can run this as root where my other xml file for a
simple playlist doesn't require root.

I'm on a Slackware 10.1 system.
