Hi Geoff, Thanks for Your reply. We are not able understand How to config Source point and what is the differences between admin and source because here in this document we are entering separate password for admin and source. If admin means ICECAST admin then I don't have any user name or password for my ICECAST server which is installed in my system. We are not able understand what is meant by relay user? What is meant by YP Directory Settings? How it is useful to our server and what are functions of YP Directory Settings. In this document all commands are in Linux based only, that is confusing us because we are using windows. How listener receives the voice or music from us. Can you please guide us and help to config the server. If you have any sample files which is works windows XP pro please send it. Waiting for your reply Thanks in advance Kind regards, Tamil.

An individual stream relay just works like any other listener. If you want an Icecast server to relay all the streams on another Icecast server, you can put the slave into server relay mode, and to do this it needs to provide the relay password. I actually thought that there was only a password but maybe there's a username too. Anyway, that's what that is for.> What is meant by YP Directory Settings?

For a listener to hear your stream, they either need to enter the direct server URL of your stream into the Open Location box of their player, or they need to click on a link on your website which contains this URL. The latter case is more common. So say you had a stream on the mountpoint /mystream.ogg, and your server is on server.com on port 8000. Then you'd make a .m3u file containing: http://server.com:8000/mystream.ogg and place a link to it on your website. All things being equal, a listener would click on this link, the .m3u file would download and launch the appropriate player, which would open the M3U file and begin streaming your audio.> Can you please guide us and help to config the server.

Perhaps if you tell us in more detail what it is you want to do, I can be more helpful. Geoff.
Hi Geoff, Thanks Geoff, We are currectly working in Asp.Net 1.1. We want to do 2 tasks. Tasks: 1. Actually we are having MP3 file which is in server (Eg. www.myserver.com/admin/music/myvoice.mp3 ). When user hit the url they want to get the music with streaming. 2. We want to give live voice streaming to users (Eg: Live Cricket Commentary). When user is in our web page , they have to hear live voice or some how they want to hear live voice with streaming. Waiting for your reply Thanks in advance Kind regards, Tamil.
