Icecast Streaming Media Server

[Anonymous]

Hi,
here's my cnfiguration :
- Server Os : Wnidows XP SP2
-Oddcast V3
-Winamp 5.23
-Icecast 2.3.1 (service installed and started )
So, here's my problem if the session is open on the remote computer hostinf icecast sever ( i've only try this using remote desktop protocol ) i can listen to the stream. But if i end the remote session i can't listen to the stream anymore and i get the following message in winamp : [HTTP/1.0 404 File Not Found] http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.:xxxx
Thanks for help
P.S.: sorry for poor english, i'm french

after laborious testing here's the point :
the problem is taht the winamp plugin is disconnecting of icecast or at least stop working as soon as there is no more active session ( RDP or console ) on the computer.
Any ideas to bypass this prbleme ?

I've had no end of trouble using RDP or Remote Desktop Connection in an audio streaming environment. First of all there are options in RDP to route sound output on the remote machine to the local client which essentially captures output from the windows mixer I believe. You could try disabling that option before you make the connection to the remote host.

The second issue I ran into is that RDP is more like a new login session to the remote host where many users can login at the same time. It places many more restrictions on access to devices and services. Tools like VNC or radmin are more like a window into the currently logged-in user's session as if you're sharing one desktop. I've had much better success with these kinds of tools. Hope this helps you.
