shoutcast help

[-paul.]

Hey all im looking to run a shoutcast server but need some help to do it.

Is anyone a bit of a pro on that area and would be willing to help?

A shoutcast server where? If you mean from your computer, your internet connection isn't really sufficient. If it's from a VPS, what OS etc?

Install CentOS :)

ssh into the server:

1. (download shoutcast files to server)
wget http://www.shoutcast.com/downloads/s...-glibc6.tar.gz

2. (untar files)
tar -zxvf shoutcast-1-9-5-linux-glibc6.tar.gz

3. (rename folder)
mv shoutcast-1-9-5-linux-glibc6 shoutcast

4.(remove downloaded file)
rm shoutcast-1-9-5-linux-glibc6.tar.gz

5. now you could either ftp into ur server and config sc_serv.conf or use shell editor (pico or nano) depending on the whats install on the box

pico sc_serv.conf
or
nano sc_serv.conf

6. (edit config)
Edit sc_serv.conf file as needed
maxuser
password
port

remore the ; infront of adminpassword and set a password

7. (save config)
ctrl-x to save and exit the editor

8.(start the server)
./sc_serv sc_serv.conf
