Guys, I have finally succeded in runing Fluid which is a streaming media , this is how I did it. First of all I had to download JRE (java run time ) into my rh 9.0 box, then compiled the fluid module as follows: # cd /home/fluid # java FLUID conf/fluid.config as soon as compiled it would launch the server in a listenning mode , the fluid.config script contains a file called /home/fluid/samples , this file contains all the *.MP3 files that would be available for listenning to the other groups in the network. Then thru via another client computer you would select a location from the player that u have and key in IP:port in my case 172.25.17.17:4712 and right away you would be able to listen to all the MP3's contained within the /home/fluid/samples file one after the other. I was very pleased to get to this stage, but right now I am trying to get to the point where I would have the choice of choosing whatever MP3 I would like to listen to rather than listenning to all the list ... I would be very pleased if anyone of u guys know have I to do that ??? I have tried puting in the realplayer location the following but it hung !! 172.25.17.17:4711/0.93.mp3 <p>Tkx for your help <p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p><p>_________________________________________________________________ MSN Search, le moteur de recherche qui pense comme vous ! http://fr.ca.search.msn.com/ --- >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.
