Authentication scheme

From Shoutcast.com

Quote:

Development support for authentication servers. Using auth will preclude you being able to use the SHOUTcast directory, since listeners need authorization to listen to your server. Ask in the mailing list for information on testing this new undocumented featureset.

I was wondering if anyone knows how authentication can be acheived? I'm guessing that maybe it uses .htaccess files, but I have no idea what to put in them.

Any help would be useful.

There is no information in the docs about the new authentication features, infact some of the docs are out of date and mention version 1.10 of shoutcast.

Has anyone had any experience with the authentication? I've joined the mailing list, so I'll post my questions in there aswell.

Thanks
