ERROR - My station is not listing...

[webslinga]

Installed shoutcast server on localhost, everything works fine except
I keep getting this error.

****[yp_add] error connecting to yp.shoutcast.com****



What could this be? Am I supposed to install to my server online too?

any help would be much appreciated.

is this the only error, usually when you get this error the next line in the log will elaborate on the reason it could n ot connect, please post a few more lines of your log.

This is the error message....

yp.shoutcast.com gave extended error (Cannot see your station/computer (IP: 24.79.68.100:8000) from the Internet, disable Internet Sharing/NAT/firewall/ISP cache (Connection refused))

I am not going thru proxy or firewall....

Admin says this:

Server Status: Server is currently up and public.

I guess im just not listing on the shoutcast directory..... but would like to.


Thanks for such a quick response

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.

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?
