Q: What are you talking about Consider making the password a broadcast only one to keep folks from repeatedly kicking each other
A: I'm talking about considering making the password a broadcast only one to keep folks from repeatedly kicking each other.

Unless, of course, this is expected behavior.

***************************

Check out the DNASs sc_serv.ini/conf configuration file for the section (default shown below):
code:
; Password. While SHOUTcast never asks a listener for a password, a
; password is required to broadcast through the server, and to perform
; administration via the web interface to this server. This server should
; consist of only letters and numbers, and is the same server your broadcaster
; will need to enter in the SHOUTcast Source Plug-in for Winamp. THIS VALUE
; CANNOT BE BLANK.
Password=changeme

code:
; AdminPassword. This password (if specified) changes the
; behavior of Password to be a broadcast-only password, and
; limits HTTP administration tasks to the password specified
; here. The broadcaster, with the password above, can still
; log in and view connected users, but only the AdminPassword
; will grant the right to kick, ban, and specify reserve hosts.
; The default is undefined (Password allows control for both
; source and admin)
; AdminPassword=adminpass



If you enable the AdminPassword option and retain it for your self, then you will be the only one with access to the DNAS admin functions (such as kicking the source).

The Password will only work from a Winamp/DSP combo (or other source) to connect a source to the DNAS.
