Setting Up A Server On My Domain

MrSkullybones · 21st February 2003, 02:44

I currently have a gaming domain (www.darktidenews.com) that has a huge chunk of bandwidth and I want to setup a shoutcast server on it so I can do a monthly shoutcast. Mostly just game discussion on low quality. I've asked around and read a lot of readmes, but to no avail. I have full access to everything on the site. What do I need to do to set it up?

Reply here or email ekneba@comcast.net

Thanks a lot 8)

Oh yes, I've been running it off of my IP, but I'm capped at 13 upload so it doesn't work so well.

Check out the results from a SHOUTcast forum search on 'telnet ssh'.

Look for a post by clubexplosion titled:
Install shoutcast on host

Note: Other search criteria may find more results.

yea u need telnet or ssh access to the server.

MrSkullybones · 21st February 2003, 19:29

I got Putty and Telnet, but I have no idea what to do. I own the site so there's no worry about permission etc. I'm a newb when it comes to shell/unix/linux etc 8(

Thanks Amps and Fester

See if this thread helps.

Thanks for all the help. I think I'll just try to find a server already setup 8)

I could help if you want. All you do is this.

D/L the Linux install from http://www.shoutcast.com

Then FTP the files SC_SERV & SC_SERV.CONF into a folder called "shoutcast" for example.

Make sure your SC_SERV.CONF file is configured correctly.

Then SSH or TELNET to your server & go into the shoutcast DIR u uploaded all your files to. Once there all you have to do is then type this command..

./SC_SERV or ./SC_SERV & to have the server run in the background.

If all is well then your server should be up & runnin on the specified port.

Three cheers for thread hijacking.

Please enjoy link bot:

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 or 172.(16-31).x.y 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

Please read some polite advice.
