I am moving to a college campus so in no way can I host Rivendell on my campus computer, which was my original intention. Their policies forbid that. So the setup is like this:
Computer #1 located off-campus with a dynamic IP registered as wrrj.org(and updated with an update client): This is the server. It hosts the Rivendell database and music library. It also runs rdairplay most of the time. It send the audio from rivendell to an internet stream via. JACK and darkice. Computer #2 located on the college campus has a dynamic IP and is registered with the domain wright.edu. This is a client computer which I will use to access the rivendell server to manipulate the music library and to control rdairplay for live shows (by using rmlsend to stop rdairplay on the server and then using rdairplay on the client computer. This set up is actually interesting because even though the two rdairplays do not match each other with logs, whatever I play on the client rdairplay also plays on the server rdairplay... audio only that is so I can't control the logs on the server rdairplay.) The music library on the server computer has an nfs filesystem which will allow the client computer to mount it on the client computer to manipulate. The server computer does not have a sound card, neither does my streaming provider support more than one source at the same time... therefore when I do live shows I will have two skype accounts, and the client and server will be in a call with each other, and the audio on the server skype will go through the internet stream... and the audio from Rivendell (playing live) on the server will go through skype to the client computer.
