Forward LMS to the net

I have a LMS installation at home and a shoutcast music stream public-ally available. Sometimes I want to join some friends online and allow them to queue music up from my LMS into the shoutcast stream.

I use darkice to stream what I'm listening to up to a shoutcast server. And then I forward the http of my LMS install to an intermediary host with this command:

ssh -R 8081:localhost:9000 -p 23 richard@my-intermediary-host.com

Then, on my-intermediary-host, I set up an apache proxy, and add in basic http auth to stop folks chancing apon it.

Listen 8008
<VirtualHost *:8008>
    ProxyPreserveHost On

    # Servers to proxy the connection, or;
    # List of application servers:
    # Usage:
    # ProxyPass / http://[IP Addr.]:[port]/
    # ProxyPassReverse / http://[IP Addr.]:[port]/
    # Example:
    ProxyPass / http://0.0.0.0:8081/
    ProxyPassReverse / http://0.0.0.0:8081/
    <Proxy *>
        Order deny,allow
        Allow from all
        Authtype Basic
        Authname "Password Required"
        AuthUserFile /etc/httpd/.htpasswd
        Require valid-user
    </Proxy>
</VirtualHost>

The next step here is to avoid using darkice and probably use LMS's mp3 streaming output to plug directly into shoutcast... probably using ssh forwarding for that as well.
