I think some fundamental misunderstanding thing is perhaps going on. What is the icecast server that I can see here: http://home.dayme.me:28888 supposed to be streaming? And If you use the local IP of that icecast server on another local machine (or same machine) can you then see the admin page? Go back to first line: What is the icecast server that I can see here: http://home.dayme.me:28888 supposed to be streaming? Configure the thing that is sending info to this icecast server, and test locally again. Worry about port forwarding later (not that this is an issue at all) I’m fair at networking and have quite a bit of experience configuring icecast to work with darkice only.

I can access all my other available servers through either localhost or home.dayme.me. Are you saying that Icecast works slightly differently so can’t recognise this from the same machine it’s broadcasting from? Or is there a way to allow this somehow?

Hi Alan, I am not currently streaming anything. Every now and then when I want to test something I’ll simply stream myself there with a mic pondering over things. When this is the case I can connect to the stream locally (through localhost) with no issue. Same for the server webpage. Again, though, I can only connect to the stream through the browser and not my media player. But I can’t connect at all through home.dayme.me or my external IP address. This is what confuses me. You can connect through my domain and external IP. I can connect through localhost. But why can’t I connect through my domain or external IP? Cheers. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/icecast/attachments/20160723/a9207e30/attachment.html>
No loopback on router, try connecting via 3G to see. If there's no stream going to Icecast no media player can play nothing. Firewall? Try switching it off for a few minutes and test. You will get there! Sent from my iPhone> On 23 Jul 2016, at 11:49, Damien Sykes-Lindley <damien at dcpendleton.plus.com> wrote: > > Hi Alan, > I am not currently streaming anything.
