server setup for a dsl connection

ukronin · 7th September 2003, 02:01

i have 512/256 dsl can i realisticly run a server? if so how should i set it up to connect 4 users with good quality (if its possible)

oh and as my ip is dynamic i presume a service like www.no-ip.com would be needed? oh and could i just distribute my ip to my users (there trusted)

refer to the stream calculator to answer how many users you can support.

looks like my bandwidth is too low,i thought it might be. is there a way round this? preferably something free.

hmm depends what genre you play, some people provide free servers for low user-count if they have space, and some just ask if you want to dj for them.. heh

i was thinking a bit of rock and rap

DJ Killer · 7th September 2003, 02:32

hmm not sure, i can provide possible connection, but we have limitations on genre play at the time

ukronin · 7th September 2003, 02:35

is the output bitrate the same as the mp3's or will shoutcast downmix it a bit?

DJ Killer · 7th September 2003, 02:36

its based on the encoder, if you tell the output bitrate to be eh 96 then it will downmix or upmix, depending on m3 bitrate.
