Hi, I am a new user.
I want to enter the following CONFIG TEXT in the SC_Serv Notepad as part of setting up shoutcast for the first time. Can you let me know where I enter the text because the SC Serv Notepad I open looks like instructions, rather than a place where you can enter and save config?
This is the info I want to enter:
*********************
Required stuff
*********************
MaxUser: Devide your upload bandwidth by your chosen bitrate to calculate how many listeners you can support.
Password: Enter one
Port Base: Enter one. Dont forget to allow access to this port via your Router or Firewall.
***************************
Server configuration
***************************
AdminPassword: As above
PublicServer: Your choice.
****************************
Network configuration
****************************
SrcIP:
127.0.0.1
Here is the first paragraph from the Sc_serv notepad:
; SHOUTcast Distributed Network Audio Server configuration file.; Copyright (C) 1998-2004 Nullsoft, Inc.; All Rights Reserved.; Last modified Mar 17 2004; If you want to manage multiple configurations, just copy
; this file to another name, and run sc_serv with that name
; such as:; sc_serv.exe sc_leet.conf
; ***************************
; Required stuff
; ***************************
; MaxUser. The maximum number of simultaneous listeners allowed=10; Compute a reasonable value for your available upstream bandwidth (i.e. if ; you have 256kbps upload DSL, and want to broadcast at 24kbps, you would ; choose 256kbps/24kbps=10 maximum listeners.) Setting this value higher ; only wastes RAM and screws up your broadcast when more people connect ; than you can support.MaxUser=32
; Password=one. While SHOUTcast never asks a listener for a password, a ; password is required to broadcast through the server, and to perform ; administration via the web interface to this server. This server should; consist of only letters and numbers, and is the same server your broadcaster; will need to enter in the SHOUTcast Source Plug-in for Winamp. THIS VALUE; CANNOT BE BLANK.
Password=one; PortBase=one. This is the IP port number your server will run on. The; value, and the value + 1 must be available. If you get a fatal error when
; the DNAS is setting up a socket on startup, make sure nothing else on the; machine is running on the same port (telnet localhost portnumber -- if you; get connection refused then you're clear to use that port). Ports < 1024
; may require root privledges on *nix machines. The default port is 8000.
PortBase=8000;
