Port 8000 being blocked

[KingDiamond]

I am trying to get my SHOUTcast server to work, but port 8000 is being blocked off.

I tried going to my outgoing IP adress's firewall settings to allow port 8000 through 8081 to be let through, but it did not seem to work. Any suggestions?

Yes - configure your router to *forward* port 8000 to the private IP of your shoutcast PC, and turn off all PC-based firewalls (like the XP built-in firewall, for example)

For forwarding ports, go to http://www.portforward.com with the make/model of your router or DSL modem. They'll walk you through it.

I did all that but my server is telling me otherwise. Is there anything in my configuration that would help?

Hmm - nothing in the logfile you posted indicates that Port 8000 is being forwarded. You might want to recheck your forwarding, and also make sure the router doesn't require a restart for the changes to take effect....

Ok, thank you for the help.

This port forwarding issues is what is keeping true and great DJ's, talk show hosts off air. I really need help to port forward an open port just to get a test broadcast on just to make sure it works, just to see if one or more of my friends could hear me. I have could have been on the air since 2009, but no, these port forwarding difficulties is keeping me isolated. I am going to get someone to help me one day.

port forwarding is probably the simplest issue to resolve, just ask someone with a passing knowledge of networking
