I’m listening to you both, Its working, but not for you locally, could be a firewall issue on your PC? perhaps changing the port to 8010? If other servers can be seen on the WAN from your internal network it could be a port conflict, or firewall issue.

But that’s only locally. My router is going to let me into my own servers locally anyway. What I want to be able to do is try and connect through home.dayme.me because, if for whatever reason anything happens, I’ll then know that maybe there’s a problem with my domain, or my ports have been reset, etc etc. At the moment I can’t check any of that because I can only connect through localhost. Sorry about this. But I really want to get this sorted if at all possible. Cheers. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hi Alan, All firewalls are switched off and I’ve changed the port to 8010. Still can’t access it from the global IP or domain name.

Hey,
Can you access the status/admin page? When we have clients or sources
who having issue with connecting to our server we have them in the browser
see if they can access this page. This will show if or if not there an
connection issue in the network.
The bigest issue we have is the client/source sides have firewall setup
blocking the connection.
one thing you can do use a a vpn like tunnelBear(i suggested this since it
free and install on many platforms) and check the connection back to your
network from outside of your network. If your local connection is working
the vpn connection should would work. unless your router has an firewall
issue of some kind. some routers do not do a local loop back to the
external ip and some will l loop it back before firewall rules are applied!
firewall can be in the server and on any the routers it has to go through.
Simple debug track:
using the admin/status page http://<ip/name>:8000/ in your favorite web
browser.
1> check localhost ( connection from the server computer ) using internal
ip
-- Mainly checks to see if the server is available
2> check local network ( from another machine other then the server)
using local ip.
-- checks to see if you can access out the server. ( check server
firewall if fails, or make sure server icecast is listening to the right
network, check the client compute for connection issues).
3> check external connection ( from a computer/connection external to
your network) using the public IP and if needed the public name.
-- This If your using a external connection( is a vpn or dial up
) you should have a direct connection back to the public ip and the issue
would be in the router OR YOUR ISP is not allowing it.
Check make sure the public name is working , it could be the DNS
is messed up some how or your dynamic DNS is not updating.
--OR you can go to a another next work external from you network,
most external networks that are public access do not block port 8000/8001 I
have found but some private ones will. Business and some schools who only
allow a very restrictive range.
if you use ping/traceroute, your router has to be setup to replies to these
commands. It become common place to block this tool for fear of DOS attacks.
I went over board on my description so someone having issues in the future
with connections issues can work on it. This is how I track down issues
when out server having issue wit client/source connections.
Pardon my interruption if I was to far off subject.
