Linux Shoutcast Manager - How to install shoutcast server

In CWP you can install shoutcast server in few clicks, in CWP menu go to Plugins and than ShoutCast Manager.

- Install Shoutcast server
  **This will create linux user named "shoutcast" which will be used to run shoutcast servers in screen.

- Remove Shoutcast server
  **This option will delete all servers and "shoutcast" linux user.

- Installing additional server servers
  **This will create additional folder locations and shoutcast server files.

- Template folder is used to copy data when creating new server and you can modify it. [DO NOT DELETE THIS FOLDER]


Please remember that shoutcast servers use 2 ports always
eg.
if you create server with port 8000 it will also work on port 8001 (accepts connections).


Creating servers example
Server1 on port 8000
Server2 on port 8002
Server3 on port 8004

If you have enabled CSF Firewall you will need to open shoutcast port and port +1.

I dont have this.

you will have when your panel updates to version 0.9.2 this will be probably tomorrow.

How do you set bitrate?

by default shoutcast server does not have bitrate limits.

helo is theare an option for autodj ?

no this is only standard shoutcast server,
if you have experience with php you can build your own module for that.

hi
how much you can build autodj option in cwp? possibility to comsuter to have access to manage shoutcast server
thank

at the moment this isn't a priority so it will come with some latter version 1.0 and above.

is the Slot Number (MaxUser) the number of listeners or the Shoutcast server users?

probably number of listeners, you can check that in shoutcast admin.

Works fantastic!

Thank you!

i created a ShoutCast Server , i chose port 8000 and username and maxslot, and at admin panel what user i put? how i play music? just from my pc via winamp?

You can use Butt, SamBroadcaster, Mixx, any tool to make live connection.

I have problem connecting to my shoutcast server. I use Altacast and Butt for stream.
Shoutcast instaled in Shoutcast Manager on port 8000, opened TCP ports 8000 and 8001 in in firewall.
Set password in sc_serv.conf file.
Also when I click on Admin Panel button a receive this error mesage: The connection was refused when attempting to contact xx.xx.xx.xx:8000
