To Sell A Lot Of Shoutcast / Hosted Accounts
Jun 22, 2008
I'm just curious to how many accounts one can create on a server
And have them all in use without going over the server limits.
Create 100 listener accounts / 96kpbs
Autodj features
1 gig of storage to uploaded audio files
How much bandwidth would you allow each account?
It's very hard to judge, considering any of them could
be running audio files off their hosting 24/7
Or live broadcasting 24/7
It's possible they might be in use this much, or not.
I'm looking for a solution not too pricey where we can create
a lot of unhosted and hosted shoutcast radio accounts for users.
I've been looking at different packages to get ideas
dule core, 2 gig ram, 400 gig hard drives
Unmetered bandwidth,
anything that is linux is good; so centos opperating system
I'd need support like msn support
But im building a better picture now and i feel these accounts
should be ready for some potential clients.
I would have thought at the start i could create a few 100
decent sized shoutcast plans with hosting etc on one server.
Lets just say i can't afford to fork out 200 per month and not
know exactly what i have to do to provide these accounts.
But i feel they will sell or i wouldn't waste my time with the idea.
If the service is decent i think i'll have a lot of intrest.

After migrating to a larger setup, I'm left me with with four large servers (specs are listed below) that I don't have any use for. I would like sell VPS hosting on it, and let the support/payments/whatever be handled through my friend's hosting company. I have been crunching some numbers, and finally came up with some prices/offers, but I am unsure if the CPUs can sustain the number of clients. Let me know what you think.
Also, if you could tell me what most VPS users are mainly looking for, it would help a bunch in configuring offers.
Server:
2x Quad-Core Intel Xeon E5450 (3.0GHz)
64GB DDR2 667MHz RAM
24x 1TB SATA HDs
RAID 10 (~11TB usable)
Offers: (storage, memory, bandwidth @ price)
160GB, 1024MB, 1TB @ $75/mo
80GB, 512MB, 1TB @ $40/mo
40GB, 256MB, 1TB @ $25/mo
The idea is to have under 128 clients on one box.

Are there companies out there that we can purchase IP's from? We might be moving data centers in 6 months and I am sick of asking my customers to always change their IP's every year.
Are there companies that we can purchase an IP block from and then carry those over to different data centers?
I am looking for something like a /26.
We currently have (2) /27's with our data center right now, but I would prefer a single /26 to keep all our IP's in the same range.
I've looked at trying to get them from ARIN, but the minimum they want to sell is a /22.
Also, how easy is it for data centers to announce your own IP space?

I got plesk installed on both server, but both server ftp not working. the ftp module is installed but i cannot connect from anywhere on the work!
I create 4 new ticket to sales, general support and billing, but no one want slove the problem, they reply me like this:
""We offer only the default OS installs.
The helpdesk does not provide support in configuration of any software packages. You may however contact our managed services department at help@fdcservers.net for a price/availability quote. If you would like us to move your ticket to their department, please let us know.""
the server is setup error and got hacker attack it, they just leave it without doing anything, what should i do?
I already write a ticket to cancel servers, but until now no response!
I just want you guy to know, If alphared don't have problems, i will still stay with them! I will never use FDCservers any more!

how can they sell UNLIMITED ALPHA MASTER RESELLER to others?
Is that true that they are your customer?
All I know is, You do not sell unlimited space at limestonenetworks.com.
Are those sites cheaters or are the illegal? I did not find a specific or complete postal address or person name on those sites.

Last week my brother puchased a CD which promised contains thousands of unique templates through [url]
He sell it locally for Indonesia market and leave no contact info.
He showed me and I'm surprised that what did guy did is copied from all sources included templatesmonster.com majority which is available alot of through the net (example: [url]burn it into CD and sell it illegaly.
I reported the site to hostgator.com and got the followin reply:

Hello,
Since there are no templates on the site, you will need to provide evidence of this some how.

I'm not trying to bash HG, but I need your opinion: is the HG respond is already correct?
So learn from the same thing, if I set a website sell cracked properties and only delivery the product through CD or email (not downloadble one) I can host it with HG as long as no offensive files in their server? Or in this case HG just ignore it because could not understand Indonesia languange?

I bought a VPS a few days ago and I'm trying to run a SHOUTcast on it.
The VPS is Linux, CentOs to be more specific.
I've installed Shoutcast and it's running, It's working with WinAmp as the website I'm running it on tells me what song is currently playing, how many listeners there are, etc.
It also says:
Server Status: Server is currently up and public.

I have a windows server 2003 running shoutcast.
I have two questions:
1.) Is there a way to send signals via Windows? I need a way to have shoutcast reload it's configuration file without kicking the users. Normally, on *nix, you could just send the kill -s SIGHUP command and it'd do it. But I can't figure out a way to do this on windows.
If this isn't possible, does anyone know if you can run shoutcast RELIABLY under cygwin?
2.) The LogFormat that shoutcast outputs looks like this:
Code:
c-ip c-dns date time cs-uri-stem c-status cs(User-Agent) sc-bytes x-duration avgbandwidth
the problem is that cs-uri-stem doesn't include cs-method ("GET") so AWStats fails with the import of the log. Is there a way to manually add this into the way AWStats parses it?
If not, is there a special way to parse shoutcast w3c logs in AWStats?

weve had a box at fdc for over a year. everything was fine until about half that time ago and consistently has gotten worse over time. We've always been really good at tracking down problems til now.
traceroute and ping results are usually pretty normal, the machine is not overloaded however our server can barely handle any amount of listeners anymore, in fact it appears as tho the number of listeners has no effect on the server skipping and buffering every few minutes.
we've changed the sources its been fed from
checked the connection from multiple locations
ping and trace results are always decent or shouldnt warrant skipping with any number listeners. in a year weve gone from consistently hosting 100+ to barely getting over 20 and often less lately. its a huge bummer.

First one i tried was Implux.net and after a year or so started getting a lot of skipping/buffering problems with the streams.
I'm now with Serverroom.us but cannot stand the software they use CentovaCast or at least don't like the setup they use.

Me and a few friends of mine are planing on creating a Shoutcast online radio station and honestly I'm new to how Shoutcast servers work and witch host would be best for me and my friends. I have a few questions on all this.
Am I suck using Winamp to play our music over the server? Or are there other more professional tools to use?
This server will be used among a few friends of mine. So if no one us broadcasting will the server play a song play list till some one starts broadcasting?
Shoutcast servers only Stream music to Winamp players only?
Anyone here got any experience with “rackedhosting.com” Shoutcast service?

i upgraded my server a few month back to a better one.
SINGLE XEON QUAD CORE 3210 / 1066FSB / 8MB CACHE
4GB DDR2
x2 500GB SATA 7200RPM (RAID-1)
50 Mbps Burst Speed
for what ever reason when i try to tune in to my radio it takes more than 10 seconds for the radio to start playing (specially on my port 8000). while other stations (competition) start right away.
my question is does it matter if i have my dns like this: [url]:8000 instead of [url]:8000 or do i have to look for something else not well configure?

I've only tried whmsonic shoutcast admin pro to create sc accounts
I used whm to create cpanel hosting accounts before so had an idea.
With whmsonic admin pro i was a bit lost, creating cpanel hosting
accounts so i could ad those features to shoutcst accounts
But from what i've read, cast control is more straight to the point
You don't need to be creatings cpanel accounts first etc etc.
Is there others that any of you have on your servers for setting
up shoutcast accounts with hosting for uploading audio files ect
Autodj and so on.
