<05/19/03@11:42:31> [yp_tch] yp.shoutcast.com touched!
I get this over and over on my station server monitor. But it just started after a week online. TIA

"yp added me" means your station information (station name, bitrate, maximum number listeners, current number listeners, currently playing song, ...) has been added to the SHOUTcast yp (yellow pages) directory.

"yp touched" means your station information (station name, bitrate, maximum number listeners, current number listeners, currently playing song, ...) has been updated in the SHOUTcast yp directory.

It can take up to 15 minutes after the first "yp touched" message before your station appears from a SHOUTcast yp search.

Thanks!! Was wondering that something might be wrong. It's doing every minute.... Is that normal?

Yes, it it normal.

If you don't like it, turn yp touches off.

Check out your DNASs sc_serv.ini/conf configuration file:

code:
; TchLog decides whether or not the DNAS logfile should track yp 

; directory touches.  Adds and removes still appear regardless of

; this setting.

; Default is yes

; TchLog=yes

Set TchLog to no and remove the comment designator ( ; ) from the beginning of the line.
