ShoutCast doesn't see station/computer

[hard69rock]

I am sure this has to be somewhere but I can't find it anywhere. I have used the forum to troubleshoot most all of my "problems" except this one.

<11/20/08@13:07:45> [yp_add] yp.shoutcast.com gave error (nak)
<11/20/08@13:07:45> [yp_add] yp.shoutcast.com gave extended error (Cannot see your station/computer
(IP: 71.236.47.12:8000) from the Internet, disable Internet Sharing/NAT/firewall/ISP cache (Connection timed out).)

I also don't get where you name the station. Is that in the "description" YP section of the DNAS?

Nak Errors,

You need to forward ports in your firewall / router

Read the Winamp Read me before posting

you need to fill in the description of the dsp.

It took my ISP to configure the port. They don't want anyone accessing "their" modem/router.
Seems to be working just fine now.
I knew it had to be in there somewhere (I recalled seeing it) but hey, it's been a work in progress for about 28 hours...

And thanks for confirming it was the "Description" section that named it.

How exactly I have to forward ports??
PLS HELP!!

[hard69rock]

Follow any of the links in the first reply. I used the second and third. The third gives really clear details as to how to forward the ports.
If you are dealing with a picky ISP (like me) you will need to call their tech support and they will do it for you.
The downside is that we do not currently have a static IP assigned so come Wednesday when the lease expires I may have more work to do.

you can use a dynamic dns name from www.dyndns.com or www.no-ip.com

you can use this instead of an ip address,
