You can then use this online
streaming bandwidth
calculator to determine the number of streams that your ShoutCast DNAS server can support.
If the computer that your ShoutCast DNAS is located on is behind a
firewall or router, you will need to make sure that they are configured to allow
Port 8000 to have access to the Internet.
You can find information on configuring routers and
port forwarding here.
You will need to click on the file tab, then on save and then close the window.
You are through configuring the Shoutcast server.
