[boonchuan]

I am running a small Shout Cast server for a small client, now another clients wants a Shout Cast. But Shout Cast u can only configure password and the max of threads. I dun see how to divide between the two clients each having their password and 20 streams.....

What shd I do , any clues?

Why not just create another account for the new client and setup a new shoutcast server?

[boonchuan]

U mean 2 Shoutcast server in a single server?

[rloxy]

Yes, just make sure you have them setup correctly or else you could cost your self a lot in bandwidth.

[boonchuan]

Thanks will try this but the ports do I need to assign a different port?

[rloxy]

Yes you will need to assign a different port to the new shoutcast server.

[pztup]

You will need to assign a new port unless you bind the shoutcast servers to different ips.

Remember shoutcast uses 2 ports, so if

Server A uses port base 8000, you will need to reserve 8000 and 8001

Server B can use 8002 and 8003

Write a new config for the second user like sc_serv2.conf and run the server with
# nohup ./sc_serv sc_serv2.conf &

You can start as many as new servers with different configurations in the background
