Lost Connection After 30 seconds.

[cjpcanada]

For some reason when I setup my server then run winamp and go to start my radio station it looses the connection after 30 seconds. I forwarded ports 8000 UDP/TCP and it doesn't seem to keep connected. I have firewall off. (On a routor.)

Using winamp 5.05

Heres what it says in my Nullsoft Shoutcast server.

Check your ini file for the lines

SrcIP and DestIP. You should leave both at ANY.

If you set an IP in those and the IP changes the server cannot lock the port properly and can cause this error.

This may not be the source of the problem but is a good place to start.

Works now. Thanks!
