Any errors in the DNAS log?

Please post a link to your DNAS.

limitz · 24th February 2003, 19:39

how do i post a link to my dnas festerhead?

Timewell · 25th February 2003, 16:13

If it is online, post the link.

If it is not online then cut and paste it.

FesterHead · 25th February 2003, 17:30

DNAS link: http://yourDNASip:yourDNASport
Listen link: http://yourDNASip:yourDNASport/listen.pls

Replace yourDNASip with the ip of the DNAS (SHOUTcast server) and yourDNASport with the DNAS port (default is 8000)

Also, machines on the same lan as the DNAS (you) need to use the lan ip of the DNAS to connect/listen.
Machines not on the same lan as the DNAS (the rest of the world) need to use the real, world-visible ip of the DNAS to connect/listen.

See RFC1918 for more information. Scroll down and look for the section titled: 3. Private Address Space

How to find your ip address (Part I).
How to find your ip address (Part II).

Finally, you can get a static name, such as foo.bar.com (not as cool as that, though

) from http://www.no-ip.com or one of the other myriad of Dynamic DNS Services.
Then, your links would be:
DNAS link: http://foo.bar.com:yourDNASport
Listen link: http://foo.bar.com:yourDNASport/listen.pls

By the way im on a LAN

FesterHead · 25th February 2003, 21:34

The DNAS tells the SHOUTcast yp (yellow pages) that you are streaming.
The yp, in turn, verifies your stream.
In your case, the yp cannot connect to your stream to verify so you will not be listed in the SHOUTcast yp directory at http://www.shoutcast.com

Are the necessary ports open in your firewall and are they being forwarded to the DNAS machine?

Check out http://www.radiotoolbox.com/cantheygetin and see if the reported information there helps.

You are one clever boy. Do you msn or anything like that?

limitz · 25th February 2003, 21:40

Reason Given: Connection timed out
More about this error: This means that you are most likely behind a firewall, this error esentially says that you and your computer aren't there. You might also check to be sure that your ip is **.***.***.***, if it is not then you are behind some sort of proxy.

I am on a LAN, which is all connected to one broadband hub on the main PC.

FesterHead · 25th February 2003, 21:46

Glad to help out.

Some folks walk on fire, some run marathons, and some chat.
I do neither, sorry.

FesterHead · 25th February 2003, 21:51

Did your ip, 80.192.225.134, match **.***.***.***? (why do folks feel they need to mask thier ip?)

Are you running Windows XP? If so, it has a built-in firewall that may need disabling.

Did you configure your router to forward your DNAS portBase and portBase+1 ports to the DNAS machine?
