Could someone help me with this?

Blackfly · 2nd October 2002, 14:07

couldn't hurt to try a different port...

snuifduif · 2nd October 2002, 16:45

already did that ://

nkanani · 3rd October 2002, 21:52

what other ports... i tried another but it wont work....this may be a stupid question to u clever users lol but i have to use the IP address of my actual computer or of my broadband ISP's IP address that was assigned to me.....

Vallikc · 3rd October 2002, 22:01

do use use both the server and the winamp shoutcast plugin and if so put "localhost" in the connection box on the plugin output screen. Also set your port controls for 80 instead of 8000 if that doesn't work leave another reply and i'll try again.

nkanani · 3rd October 2002, 22:16

not sure if i did this all right...when it comes to network stuff within windows this isnt my strong point.......

i put the port as 80 in the sc_serv file. is that what i was sposed to do? then i went into winamp and selected the shoutcast plugin. it brings up a box that says shoutcast source. i clicked on the output tab and put in 'localhost' in the address bit.. is that right... also the box wont close probably because there is some sort of error. there isnt an ok button. i ran the shoutcast server and got this

it needs to have 1 number from the port free as well doesnt it...what now

Vallikc · 3rd October 2002, 23:04

Well the server is loading correctly you just need to find a free port on your computer. Do you connect throught a lan or a regular internet connection and do you have a firewall.

nkanani · 3rd October 2002, 23:12

i have a broadband service which gives me a dynamic Ip address. ithis service is by NTL. Im not sure if theres a firewall.. how can i find out

Vallikc · 3rd October 2002, 23:35

If you do a search on the threads it will give you the information you should need. I'm not quite positive on how to find a firewall i have a massive one of my own.

nkanani · 3rd October 2002, 23:46

cant seem to find anything on search. what are the two options anyway. if i have a firewall or if i dont. Also the log now looks like this...slightly different but a more positive output:

what now...do i use a different port. which one.

Vallikc · 4th October 2002, 00:16

Actually you've got your server set now you need to configure your dns plugin for winamp unless someone else is going to use your server

nkanani · 4th October 2002, 23:46

are u sure as it still waits for a connection on port 81. not sure what to do...also i cant connect at the DSP plug in settings.. i dont think the connection to the server is done yet as the results that other people have shown seem to be more positive....what does urs say. what do i no now

nkanani · 5th October 2002, 00:08

need to know what to put in the port base, and Yport. maybe those are the reasons why it doesnt work. and just to make sure what is the ip address i use again.. the one of my computer as the whatsmyipaddress showed me or the one assigned to my ethernet card.

Ram · 22nd November 2002, 15:40

I have the following meesage

When I use port 8000, all works properly. I need to use 80, in order to allow access for myself to listen thru firewall from work.

Tom · 22nd November 2002, 18:02

Now you just need to connect the DSP. Make sure you change the port in the DSP to 80.

Tom

nkanani · 22nd November 2002, 18:06

i think i managed to set everything up and it all appears to be ok.....just to make sure in what format do i give the address to ppl so they can connect......i think its http:\\(ipaddress)(port number)

i wasnt sure b4 about what ip address to use and im still not sure....do i use the ip address assigned to me by my ISP which i use to connect to the internet or do i use the ip address given to me via the whatsmyipaddress website. help help help

in the config file it mentioned something about port 666. has that been recovered now or not...i get my internet connection via a ISP which other way can i set this up.....what do users connect to........

Ram · 22nd November 2002, 18:14

I have configured the DSP to look at port 80. When I start server and winamp, the connection is never established.

I have a static IP.
PortBase=80
DestIP=ANY
Yport=80 (Tried with 666 also)

Again if I set the port to 8000 I do not have any problems except for the fact that when I am outside behind a firewall, I cannot connect, I get a timed out message. Since 80 is the only port available, I need to set the port to 80.

Help is appreciated.

nkanani · 22nd November 2002, 18:21

for me too....hellllllllp pleaseeeeee

Ram · 23rd November 2002, 04:21

Uninstalled winamp
Reinstalled winamp
changed server config for port to 80
Configured winamp for port 80

Now broadcasting on port 80

nkanani · 23rd November 2002, 20:42
