hello

i got 2 questions

i want to make my own internet radio how do i do this on linux (i got linux mandrake)

when i installed mandrake 10.0 i installed the apache webserver and perl how do i open these? where r the files

cheers

For running internet radio:... try the documents at [http://www.shoutcast.com], near the top of the page: "Wanna be a broadcaster? It's Free! Check the online docs to get started! "
I've never tried it.

For the webserver:
Check if you are actually running apache [just because it is installed doesn't mean it will start when you boot], open a browser window and try [http://localhost]. It should bring up a page congratulating you on installing apache. If it says 'Connection Refused' then you need to use one of Mandrakes tools to start apache [sometimes called httpd] when you boot.

The files that apache servers are normally found in '/var/www/' webpages are in a folder called 'htdocs' or 'html', and perl scripts should go in 'cgi-bin'.
Apache should handle perl straight out of the box... as long as the files contained a correct shebang, and are executable. There may be something in the config file to turn it on... I can't remember. [Read: /etc/apache/httpd.conf or /etc/apache.conf, perhaps /etc/httpd.conf]

There is also the gstreamer programs. I believe that the rpms are included already.

cheers guys

i wanted to know is php already installed as well?

cheers again

is there any OTHER internet radio software

because it doesnt work with shoutcast

This web page will probably provide the answers:

http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/Lin...Streaming.html

It mentions icecast streaming specifically. Icecast was designed to be Shoutcast compatible.
