can someone help? *new*
 

hi,

i just got shoutcast and all the programs needed, but it wont work. i keep getting this:

yp.shoutcast.com gave extended error (Cannot see your station/computer from the Internet, disable Internet Sharing/NAT/firewall/ISP cache (Connection refused))

i turned of the default windows xp firewall but i still get this message, can someone help me?

are you behind a router?

If your behind a router, forward both ports 8000 and 8001 (I'm guessing those are the ones your using) to the machine your hosting your stream on.

What are putting in the 'Address' box in the SHOUTcast DSP window?

localhost is in a'address' and i have no idea if im behind a router. how do i tell? and how do i forward the ports?

Ask your dad, which I'm sure he would know because by the looks of it, you didn't purchase the computer or your ISP.

um isnt there anything you can tell me what to do?

use this: http://www.danasoft.com/vipersig.jpg

Ok how can I explain this...
Do you see the wonderful picture above your last post?

i see some cartoon showing my ip for all to see, thanks :eek:

yes yes, copy all that down in a new post.. (the place you type your message) and it will help us better aid you

and the point of making a new post being?
