To listen, you first need to download and install this AAC+ plugin. Then once this is installed, all you need to do is click here to listen.

You can run SHOUTcast as a Windows Service, so that you can log off on your server and still run SHOUTcast. This is done with a utility called SRVANY.EXE. This utility runs as it’s own service and when it starts it starts SHOUTcast with it. Pretty simple stuff really, so here goes. Installation: Install SHOUTcast server as normal to the C:\Program Files\SHOUTcast directory Copy instsrv.exe to your C:\WINDOWS\system32 directory Copy SRVANY.EXE to C:\Program Files\SHOUTcast From command prompt, run this command – INSTSRV SHOUTcast “C:\Program Files\SHOUTcast\srvany.exe” Run the Registry Editor (REGEDT32.EXE) Under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SHOUTcast: create a ‘Parameters‘ key (folder) Under the this…

I had a problem where in imported all my contacts from Outlook to Counterpath’s X-Lite, however all of my numbers had +61 before the number, and all my calls were failing. Network error etc etc. My dial plan originally was: #1\a\a.T;match=1;prestrip=2; This was default, so I changed it to add in another match, see below: #1\a\a.T|+61xxxxxxxxxT;match=1;prestrip=2;match=2;prestrip=3;pre=0 What the above dial plan does using a second match, detects a number being dialled with a +61 before the number, then pre strips the first 3 numbers and also adds a 0, so in essence a number +614017891234 will have the first 3…

Exchange Server 2007 doesn’t allow us to purge the disconnected mailbox. In order to remove one or multiple disconnected mailboxes we can be performing these steps: Listing all disconnected mailboxes Get-MailboxStatistics | where-object { $_.DisconnectDate -ne $null } | Select DisplayName,MailboxGuid Removing a single entry Remove-Mailbox -Database <Database-Name> -StoreMailboxIdentity <MailboxGuid> -confirm:$false Removing all users at the same time $users = Get-MailboxStatistics | where-object { $_.DisconnectDate -ne $null } | Select DisplayName,MailboxGuid Now that we have all disconnected mailboxes in a var, we can run the following cmdlet to remove all of them: $users | ForEach { Remove-Mailbox -Database "Mailbox Database"…

Setting up relay for Exchange 2007 is done on the Receive connector. It can be locked down to certain IP addresses & Users. Here’s an example, to setup a receive connector which allows connections from a list of specific IP addresses, on the Edge Transport server or Hub Transport server run the following command: New-ReceiveConnector –Name "Anonymous Relay" -Usage Custom -PermissionGroups AnonymousUsers, ExchangeServers -Bindings 0.0.0.0:25 –AuthMechanism Tls, ExternalAuthoritative -RemoteIpRanges 149.171.135.0/24, 149.171.130.128/26, 149.171.130.192/26, 149.171.131.75,149.171.131.81, 149.171.130.23, 149.71.70.0/24, 149.171.62.0/24, 149.171.130.32, 149.171.130.22, 129.94.41.94 PermissionGroups – AnonymousUsers, ExchangeUsers, ExchangeServers, LegacyExchangeServers, Partners Bindings – 0.0.0.0:25 AuthMechanism – Tls, ExternalAuthoritative   From the image above, ticking the…

  To find the network adapters At a command prompt, type the following: netsh interface ipv4 show interfaces Make a note of the number shown in the Idx column of the output for your network adapter. If your computer has more than one network adapter, make a note of the number corresponding to the network adapter for which you wish to set a static IP address. Set the IP address At the command prompt, type: netsh interface ipv4 set address name="<ID>" source=static address=<StaticIP> mask=<SubnetMask> gateway=<DefaultGateway> Where: ID is the number from step 2 above StaticIP is the static IP address…
