Thanks Lorne That's really helpful. Drew spent a great deal of time with me going through my setup and I thinknI understand it far more now. I now have Jack working and I'm trying to get glasshouse talking to my icecast server. Great progress!

The big trick with Jack is that Jack and all of the clients interacting with Jack need to be running as the same user. The Rivendell daemons on a standard setup run as root, so in order for Jack to be able to see Rivendell when you have Rivendell start jack, it'll start as root - the same user that the daemons run as. The issue is when you're running your other Jack clients (BUTT, Darkice, etc) they're probably being run as the logged in user, so they won't see Jack running. In the Rivendell Jack settings under RDAdmin --> Hosts --> Jack settings there's the option to start up additional Jack clients. This is what you'll want to use to start your clients - that way Jack, Rivendell, and all the clients will be started as the same user, and they should all be able to see each other. Then build a macro to create connections between all your jack inputs/outputs.
