"yp added me" means your station information (station name, bitrate, maximum number listeners, current number listeners, currently playing song, ...) has been added to the SHOUTcast yp (yellow pages) directory.

"yp touched" means your station information (station name, bitrate, maximum number listeners, current number listeners, currently playing song, ...) has been updated in the SHOUTcast yp directory.

It can take up to 15 minutes after the first "yp touched" message before your station appears from a SHOUTcast yp search.

my mates trying to listen in and it isn't working for him? but each time he attempts to listen i get that message you see. is that some sort of problem or is this normal?

That message is independent of a listener connecting/disconnecting.

Please post a link to your stream.

"yp touched" is normal activity.
Don't like the "yp touch" messages in your DNAS log? Turn them off.

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

code:
; TchLog decides whether or not the DNAS logfile should track yp 

; directory touches.  Adds and removes still appear regardless of

; this setting.

; Default is yes

; TchLog=yes

Change TchLog to "no" (without the quotes), remove the comment designator from the beginning of the line ( ; ), and restart the DNAS.

the link to my radio is... http://192.168.1._:8000/listen.pls
i have a router the people im sharing the connection with they can only tune in however other people can't...?

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)

Example:
If your DNAS ip is 123.345.567.789 and your DNAS portBase is 2112, then your links would be:
DNAS link: http://123.345.567.789:2112
Listen link: http://123.345.567.789:2112/listen.pls

Also, if your router doesn't support local loopback then 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.

Please don't give out urls with 127.0.0.1 as the ip. That is a local loopback ip.
See RFC3330 for more information.

Please don't give out urls with 192.168.x.y or 10.x.y.z as the ip. That is a private lan ip.
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

i checked in the shoutcast technical support file under the router problems it said i have to foward ports and sommat about changing i.p's

is this the option where i change the i.p?

FesterHead · 19th August 2003, 21:13

Do not edit that.

Check out your router documentation and/or router manufacturers website for port forwarding (sometimes it's called virtual server) instructions.

scarface2k3 · 22nd August 2003, 20:36

Is it possible to do port fowarding and changing i.p through a firewall?
