A: Check out the Sticky post titled:
SHOUTcast: Important Info & Answers to FAQs. READ ME!

Scroll down a bit and look for the section titled:

General SHOUTcast Information -> SHOUTcast Whitepaper (Radio Toolbox)

Q: How does server nows that i'm connecting with browser no winamp (HTTP?)
A: If the DNAS request contains "Mozilla" (sans quotes) in the user-agent tag, the DNAS treats it as a browser request.

Q: And what commands I can use with shoutcast?
A: What version of the DNAS for what platform?

Check out the DNAS readme for the following section:
"Signals support is included on UNIX."

(I'm not a Debian nor Unix user so your result may vary from expected)

What was the user-agent tag?

MOzilla -> web interface request
Non Mozilla -> listen request
