Cannot see your station/computer

[ntranced]

I have shoutcast nullsoft server gui installed and running.
I have created a station, set all up, passwords etc... using winamp it logs in ok and shows this information:

<11/03/06@12:39:41> [source] icy-name:dbc sports ******************************* ; icy-genre:sport
<11/03/06@12:39:41> [source] icy-pub:1 ; icy-br:56 ; icy-url:http://www.shoutcast.com
<11/03/06@12:39:41> [source] icy-irc:#shoutcast ; icy-icq:0 ; icy-aim:N/A

The feed is playing ok, but when I go to shoutcast.com, my radio station is not showing up in amongst the list with all the other stations.

About several minutes later, I then get this message in the GUI box:


[yp_add] yp.shoutcast.com gave extended error (Cannot see your station/computer (IP: **.*.**.**:8000) from the Internet, disable Internet Sharing/NAT/firewall/ISP cache (Connection refused).)
<11/03/06@12:46:13> [yp_add] yp.shoutcast.com gave error (nak)

I have none of the above on my server. I am really confused here.

Can anyone help me out? Much appreaciated.

Thanks

I have tried to find a topic regarding this before posting, but cannot find anything.

I had at one stage removed the router out of the way and just had my normal broadband modem on, and turned the firewall off, so nothing could get in the way, but returned this error message:
[yp_add] error resolving yp.shoutcast.com

I wont do that again, as trojans started to appear. Cleared them all off and no problems, but now have full security on my PC. The router is configured as per instructions.

If you forward the router correctly according to the guides at portforward.com
there is nothing standing in your way to broadcast a stream over the internet

if you however still have a firewall running on your system you kinda get blocked twice

the router has it's own firwall ( hardware) and you put a firewall on your system (software)

heres some handy tutorials

Read the Winamp Read me

Followed everything to a T, and nak error now refers to connection timed out.

As above I take the router out, firewall etc... so nothing standing in the way, I then recieve a new error.

Could be an intermenitent problem with Shoutcast, can you drop us a link to test?

[nwo4life1949]

ok, this is my error. I originally had the nak errors as mentioned above, but now i have a bit of a confusing error (at least to me)

I start the DNAS server, and it touch's and add's me succesfully. I can even see my station on shoutcast.com. But the problem Im having is that NOBODY can connect to it, theyll click the link and it wont be able to play.

So yeah, Not sure why itll let it connect to shoutcast, but not let people listen. Ive turnd off the windows firewall and the only antivirus program i use is NOD32 and i believe that the dnas is allowed through.

http://shoutcast.com/sbin/shoutcast-...e=filename.pls

thats the link (I have it running all the time)

any help would be appreciated.

[tuckerm]

Link plz?

http://youriphere:8000/listen.pls

[nwo4life1949]

http://192.168.1.100:8000/listen.pls

[tuckerm]

That's your local IP, you need your puplic ip: www.whatismyip.com

[nwo4life1949]

http://72.248.16.191:8000/listen.pls

[tuckerm]

Winamp won't connect meaning your server isnt up. You didnt forward ports 8000 and 8001 correctly.

I understand 'link to test', but not entirely sure on what link you need. A URL link? or IP Link?.

[tuckerm]

http://youripaddresshere:8000/listen.pls

Put your puplic ip in there, you can find that at www.whatismyip.com

[nwo4life1949]

I followed the directions from port forward to a T, how have i not opened them correctly?

http://82.31.82.130:8000/listen.pls

I do notice, however, that the only IP address the router will allow to forward is this one: 192.168.1.100 with ports 8000 to 8001.
I have set the router to forward scast/8000 to 8001/TCP/192.168.1.100/enable in port range forward. Port triggering is enabled also. DMZ is disabled.

As for you, try this.

What kind of errors? If it's that YP ADD one your fine as i can connect to your station, meaning it's not on your end anymore. As long as your not getting a nak error, your fine.

Yes, this is the one I keep recieving: [yp_add] yp.shoutcast.com gave extended error (Cannot see your station/computer (IP: 82.3.32.74:8000) from the Internet, disable Internet Sharing/NAT/firewall/ISP cache (Connection refused).)

Simply ignore it then, yes?

[nwo4life1949]

did the tests, cant get past number 2. I stopped my firewall like before so my connection just says "Connected", But when I do test 2 it cant connect. DNAS is running and the nak error shows up yet again.

I have been downing the server and restarting most of the time, trying to get it going. It works now. I have to set the reconnect after disconnection from 30 to 1 for it to be as best can. I don't know why it keeps dropping tbh.

Huge thankyou for your help. Very much appreciate the time you gave.

[nwo4life1949]

Thats obvious (not trying to be rude), but ive followed the directions from front to back at allinternetradio.com (the link you posted above) on my other computer before, and it worked fine. Yet on this one, it wont work, I cant imagine what I am doing wrong. No firewall is up, what else could be preventing this from working.

Is the server on your computer?

I'm guessing it is, have you assigned it a static ip?

Have you disabled windows xp's firewall?

[nwo4life1949]

yes to both questions

[nwo4life1949]

figured it out, turns out i had ports forwarded still for my other comp, once i set it up for this one and removed it from the other one it worked. thanks for all your help and time guys.

[fc*uk]

if your router uses dhcp then if your computer's ip changes you are going to have to setup port forwarding for the new IP.... Just a FYI

[nwo4life1949]

ive got a static so im good
