does your dnas log show any errors?

if you broadcast with the dnas and dsp plug it can take up to 20 min before your station appears in the list.

btw. even without being in the shoutcast list you are still able to broadcast on the internet!

no errors, i waited 2 hours and it still didnt show in the list, i would like it to show in the list if this is possible, many thanks

you can't do anything yourself, if you broadcast with the shoutcast dnas 1.95 it shows up in the list, but recently the yp at shoutcast.com had a few bad hair days, could be that these are the yp's last hick ups.

again , not showing up in the list or showing up in the list has no effects on the actual broadcast!

Unless made changes in the config.file and made your station a privat one instead of a public station.

those log lines you put don't look like SHOUTcast. Make sure you are using the latest version of the SHOUTcast server at www.shoutcast.com.

[madkmb]

well i must be getting somewhere, i managed to get connected, but i keep getting this message?? [yp_add]error resolving yp.shoutcast.com. can u help, have i done something wrong or just missed qa setting that needs to be changed? thanks

[NJK]

error resolving yp shoutcast.com is the result of a misconfigured firewall setting.

try changing the standard 80 into 666

; Yport, port to connect to yp.shoutcast.com on. For people behind caching
; webproxies, change this to the alternate port (666 is what it might be,
; check www.shoutcast.com if you have problems). Otherwise, leave this at 80.
; We're actively working on re-opening port 666, but as of release the only
; working port is port 80.
Yport=80


and please don't pm me when you don't get an instant reply. besides being here I do have a life.
and there is this little button on the bottom of every post that says edit, you can use it for a change in a previous post or to repair a typo. please use it, looks far better than several posts in a row.
