Some problems occured when streaming

[Predator 2005]

After installation, I have found a few problems.

On my end, everything seems to work fine, I think. But, I have asked two people to click on my link, and they said, that they couldn't get the stream.

Another friend said, "Page cannot be displayed."

I clicked on the link myself, and it worked. The IP address is...

http://192.168.2.27:8000/listen.pls

Also, when I did click the link to hear my stream, it only went for about 30-35 seconds before disconnecting and restarting the stream again.

I don't know if this helps, but here is the log from the server.

If anyone could help, it would be greatly appreciated.

By the way, it's not for streaming at the moment, as I have 'Killed the server' for the time being. If you want any more information you can contact me through MSN, AIM or Yahoo, and if you want me to re-start the server, I'll do so.

Thanks,

two simple things

the 192 ip is only real on your pc and not for the outside
www.whatismyip.com for your real ip ( if you forwarded the ports correctly it should work than for the outside)

source dropped connection --> something isn't working smoothly, what do you use to feed the dnas server ?
if you are on winamp(recommended) and you don't feed the source mp3 files it will act like this.
switching to soundcard might do the trick here.

Ok, Thanks.

Now where about's would I put me "real" IP address... 216.183.149.30? In the Shoutcast Source? Or in the Shoutcast DNAS Config? If so, where about's in the DNAS Config?

Because, I added my "real" address into the Shoutcast Source, and it doesn't work. It won't connect. However, my computer IP address, 192.168.2.27 works.

When I streamed it, and added my real IP address in the URL, "http://216.183.149.30:8000/listen.pls" it didn't come through for me, or isn't supose to? Would it only be for outsiders then?

[NJK]

http://216.183.149.30:8000
gives me nothing.
so you either didn't forward the ports right or you are not streaming

in the dsp plug ( note--> not the dnas) you fill in localhost or 127.0.0.1 and nothing else.

it could well be that your modem/router isn't having a local loopback function,meaning you can't connect to your own stream using the real ip adress

[Predator 2005]

In the DSP plug, I just recently put "localhost", but I did have it as 192.168.2.27

I tried it again, and this is what the logfile was for the Shoutcast server.

Now, my firewall is disabled and I believe Internet sharing is too. I'm not quite sure. How would I be able to disable NAT and ISP cashe. Where do I go into to change it on a Windows XP. Would it be in Control Panel --> Internet and Network Connections. I'm having trouble trying to exactly pin-point it on here.

If you want the DNAS configuration, I'll give it to ya.

By the way, how and where do I forward the ports? I'm think I know, but wanna be sure.

Thanks.
