Help Me Set Up WinAmp So I Can Stream!

I am trying to stream to a registered domain name that contains my Shoutcast Server for 100 listeners. I keep telling the guy at the website that I need the IP address, Port, and password for the Shoutcast DNAS software to work. He says I should be using WinAmp to stream. I am using WinAmp, but also the DNAS software. Is there a way to stream to the domain name without the IP address through WinAmp? For example, I have http://domainname.info:port as the destination for my stream. The web guy SWEARS I should be able to stream here from WinAmp. I think he's on crack. After dealing with this all afternoon, I need some crack too! Any streaming advise will be helpful, and will keep me off drugs...

First you want to insure the config file entries for DestIP and SrcIP are both left at the default "ANY". Beyond that so long as the domain is resolving to a working IP address on that machine it should work fine unless a firewall or something it blocking the needed ports.

However you do NOT want http:// in the entry for ip/domain. Only use the name - such as name.mydomain.com, not http://name.mydomain.com
