This howto will describe how you can easily setup a shoutcast server with any linux distribution (in this example we used Debian, but it's almost the same with any distro). With shoutcast you can broadcast any song that winamp / xmms play (mp3, wav etc) and broadcast to server via nullsoft shoutcast DSP plugin for winamp / linux / mac…
Simply execute these commands (change your_path with the desired installation path):
# cd your_path
# wget http://www.shoutcast.com/downloads/sc1-9-5/shoutcast-1-9-5-linux-glibc6.tar.gz
# tar zxvf shoutcast-1-9-5-linux-glibc6.tar.gz ; rm shoutcast-1-9-5-linux-glibc6.tar.gz
# mv shoutcast-1-9-5-linux-glibc6 shoutcast
# cd shoutcast
# vi shoutcast
#!/bin/bash
#########################
# Start Shoutcast Wrapper
#########################
/your_path/sc_serv /your_path/shoutcast/sc_serv.conf > /dev/null &
# chmod +x shoutcast
And lets start broadcasting:-)
# ./shoutcast
