[icecast] please help coant connect to streamer from outside local lan
Hi: I've been trying to setup icecast now for about 2 weeks. I'v reread all the documentation over and over again. What's happining is I can start the icecast server connect an encoder to it adn stream only inside my local lan. I've got my firewall set to allow connections to port 8000 and 80001 for tcp and udp , I've put the line "icecast: ALL" in my host.allow file. I can connect to port 8000 with the www admin page but When I try and connect with a mp3 player like winamp or xmms it fails with "connection refused" or can't connect . is there any isues with tcp wrappers that I should be aware of? I ruled out my fire wall by running the server without one for a test. even without any fire wall at all I still can not connect from outside to the icecast server on port 8000 I can sit and listen to the stream i produce with liveice only if I use my internal ip address to connect to if I use the public addess it fails. But the public IP allows connection of the web interface. This is driving me nuts. I'm using redhat 7.2 and the latest icecast and liveice , are there issue with 7.2 that you know of ? thanks for any help please respond to my e-mail as I'm not on the list yet. Thanks greg@lazymountain.com <p>--- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'icecast-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.
