what port do listeners use to connect to my server???

[John_Shumate]

Ports 8000 and 8001

One for Incoming, One for Outgoing.

Check out the DNASs sc_serv.ini/conf configuration file for the section (default shown below):

code:
; PortBase. This is the IP port number your server will run on.  The

; value, and the value + 1 must be available.  If you get a fatal error when

; the DNAS is setting up a socket on startup, make sure nothing else on the

; machine is running on the same port (telnet localhost portnumber -- if you

; get connection refused then you're clear to use that port).  Ports < 1024 

; may require root privledges on *nix machines.  The default port is 8000.

PortBase=8000

do remote listeners actually need portbase AND portbase+1 outbound access to successfully connect and receive from the stream server?

In my case, most of my listeners would be located at firewalled/proxied corporate networks with very limited outbound access (80, 443 through proxy), 21, 25,110 etc.

If i configure my shoutcast server to bind to portbase 80, would the remote clients be able to connect, provided that they don't have outbound access through port 81?

thanks.

i think 8000 must be the output, and 8001 is the intput (to their computer

portBase is used for the web interface (with request user-agent Mozilla) and listeners (with request user-agent not Mozilla).

portBase+1 is used for the source connection.

Listeners only use portBase.
