the hosts should have told you the login information and where they installed the server.

[dcpr]

they send me this:

To start the shoutcast, you just have to give the following commands on the shell:
cd /root/shoutcast/
./sc_serv sc_serv.conf

We can start the shoutcast on the server without any problem. Please check:
-bash-3.00# cd /root/shoutcast/
-bash-3.00# ./sc_serv sc_serv.confisteners (0 unique)

this is the server running and now you need to connect a source with the shoutcast dsp.

this is a tutorial that will help you get going using the information they sent you.

what is the ip and port.?

[dcpr]

I dont know but i send an email to my support to see if they can give it to me

[dcpr]

The Ip is 75.126.196.162 and the port number is 8000

[Nick@ss]

No server at this address and i imagine it needs starting,

http://75.126.196.162:8000

you need to ssh into the box with something like putty using your ip to login with your user name and password and start the server by following the links given above

[Sleeper2000]

If your server company dosnt support shoutcast you should probubly find one who dose. Cause if you start streaming and sucking up there bandwidth there probubly not going to be happy. But yah if you dont have ssh access there going to have to do everyting for you and all they have to do is going into where they installed the files and put in the

./sc_serv sc_serv.conf

and it will start up and then you can go to http://75.126.196.162:8000 and youll see the dnas page.

Thats your only option. Next time find a real shoutcast host. Im sure nick@ss and I could both "help" you out with that...lol
