what link are you giving them

make sure its in this format:

http://111.222.111.222:8000/listen.pls

please replace 111.222.111.222 and 8000 with ur actual port and ip address

let me know if it works or not

[tequilawurzel]

No. It doesn't work. ( http://80.129.28.150:8000/listen.pls )
My server works behind a router (rp114 netgear). But I've set the forward port correctly.

[tequilawurzel]

it works...but only for other people.
if i try to connect my server...i´ve got an error-message (timed out)

other people can hear the radio...

Two (or less) easy steps:
1. If you have a firewall, open the necessary port(s).
2. If you have a router, configure it to forward the necessary port(s) to the DNAS machine.

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

Scroll down a bit and look for the section titled:
DNAS Stuff -> Errors -> Fixing [yp_add] yp.shoutcast.com gave extended error (Cannot see your station/computer (IP: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxxx) from the Internet, disable NAT/firewall/ISP cache (Connection timed out)

Are the necessary ports open in your firewall and are they being forwarded to the DNAS machine?

Check out http://www.radiotoolbox.com/cantheygetin and see if the reported information there helps.

now it works. but only for external listeners.

i can not connect my own server. i don´t know why...

If your within your LAN use your LAN IP since most routers don't loopback.
