Can anyone explain what this acyually means? I guess clients display sthe current number of listeners... What about the rest?

client_connections 76508
clients 45
connections 76925
source_client_connections 99
source_relay_connections 0
source_total_connections 99

Thanx,
Stig

This is, I would guess, the number of clients connected. That means the number of computers running Winamp, for example, that are connected to the server.

connections 76925

This is the number of total connections back and forth from sources and clients to the server.

stig wrote:
source_client_connections 99

This is the number of local (i.e., on the same machine or LAN) source servers connections to the server, which means x number of sources are distributing 99 streams to the server at once.

stig wrote:
source_relay_connections 0

This is the same as the last one, only these sources would not be local -- they would be anywhere on the net.

stig wrote:
source_total_connections 99

Self-explanatory.

As for the rest, I'm not sure. Hopefully someone else will tackle them?

Hope this helps!

Thanx a lot for you help!
One more (probably stupid question...):

Does that mean 99 listeners more...?

Thanks,

Again, I'm not an expert on this, but I believe that this number is not related at all to listeners that ARE connected. I think it represents (somebody correct me if I'm wrong here) the number of sources connected to the server on a local basis.
To give you a better idea, think of it like this:

Source (makes the stream) ---> Icecast server (distributes the stream) ---> client (listens to the stream)

For each Server, you can have MANY sources, and many connections to clients as well.

This is the the number of source clients that have connected since the server started, it does not include relays starting up. The *_connections stats are accumulative. clients refer to the number of clients connected (whether they are listeners, source clients, etc)
