I did all those steps already. :p Im 100% sure my firewall is off. But port 80 is blocked by my ISP, so im using port 8080 instead. My station work fine, and poeple can tune in. But for some reason i get that error and it wont appear in the yellowpapges. Still doesnt work...

:(

Have you tried setting yPort to 666?

From the DNASs sc_serv.ini/conf configuration file (default section shown below):

code:
; Yport, port to connect to yp.shoutcast.com on. For people behind caching 

; webproxies, change this to the alternate port (666 is what it might be, 

; check www.shoutcast.com if you have problems). Otherwise, leave this at 80.

; We're actively working on re-opening port 666, but as of release the only

; working port is port 80.

Yport=80

Thank you so much man, It worked! :up:
