linux server running, but can't connect to it

caffine77 · 10th March 2003, 08:47

downloaded server from here: http://www.shoutcast.com/download/files.phtml

got the "DSP plugin" here:
http://www.shoutcast.com/download/broadcast.phtml

got 'em talking to each other. transcast is updating titles and decoding mp3s. dnas is "[active]", but i can't connect to it from a winamp. what am i missing? the sc_trans_linux takes the place of having to have winamp running, correct? it's decoding and playing mp3s. the server is recving the data and waiting for listeners. why can't i listen to my music?

thanks for your help. ttyl,

how did u connect to it?
http://your-ip:8000/listen.pls ?

caffine77 · 10th March 2003, 16:29

yes, but http://my-ip:8000/example.lst, then http://my-ip:8000/example.list
that's how they had it setup in the .conf file - with the .lst extension. I also tried just http://my-ip:8000 since that's what worked on my win machines. No success any of these ways. ttyl,

Are you using the lan ip (if applicable) or the world-visible ip?

caffine77 · 10th March 2003, 17:12

world-visible. i can connect to other services on the machine... just not the shoutcast server.

FesterHead · 10th March 2003, 17:14

May we try?

Please post a link to your DNAS.

4.43.176.111:8000/example.list

FesterHead · 10th March 2003, 17:36

http://4.43.176.111:8000 -> Cannot find server or DNS Error

I do see you at http://4.43.176.111

Are the necessary ports open and being forwarded?

caffine77 · 10th March 2003, 18:04

guess not... fired up a web server on 8000 and i can't get to that on the other machines either, tho i can reach it on the same machine. working on resolving that...

caffine77 · 10th March 2003, 18:37

yup. there's the problem. ebkac. sorry to waste everyone's time

just gotta fix the firewall.

caffine77 · 10th March 2003, 18:59

for anyone else with the same problem, here's how it is repaired (some redhat-specific):

/sbin/iptables --list --line-numbers

decide where to put the rule

/sbin/iptables -I RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT 3 -p tcp --destination-port 8000 -j ACCEPT

where 3 is where you wanna insert the rule and 8000 is your shoutcast portbase. The RH-Lokkit thing is a chain that redhat makes, so maybe yo'll just wanna put yours in INPUT. Hope this helps someone out there! Thanks for your help festerhead. ttyl,
