I just uninstalled and reinstalled Softsqueeze, and finally figured out
the way to hold my lips just right when I started it, and it now works
[grin]. Just needed to get the server name correct with the Hamachi
VPN.
So life is good, and I'm listening to my music.
Thanks to all.

Thanks everyone for all the help. I closed all my ports and am using
Hamachi right now, and listening to my Slimserver with MediaMonkey. I
still can't seem to get Softsqueeze to work, but that's kind of moot
now as this works very well streaming at 320Kbps.
I understand the point about Hamachi be

One more thing: if you do go the SSH route, you might want to change
your default port, it'll help avoid people pounding on it all day
(althoug
The only thing about Hamachi is that you are using their servers as a
go-between, and when they go down, you're SOL. A definite point to
consider.
I've setup OpenSSH on Windows and found it to be very convenient to
have remote access to not only my music but also my files.

I found it easier to set up SSH first, since one pipeline takes care
of all the ports - you don't have to worry about ISPs filtering
anything,
I've not setup SSH, but I did just go through setting up vpn access
through Hamachi. VERY easy, even for a non-tech guy like me. Search
for 'Hamachi' on the forums and you should find some good information.

Could the Softsqueeze issue be firewall related? I mean the firewall at
where ever you are trying to connect from?
If you can get SSH set up, and get it working, that won't be an issue
anyway.
As for SSH setup, if you're on Windows, try using OpenSSH on Cygwin.
Straight forward to setup, and w
Thanks guys, that explains part of my issue.

Softsqueeze not only will not play any files, but it will not even
connect completely. It's MediaMonkey that connects and will
Also, as you are only streaming MP3, you don't need port 3483 open -
thats used by Softsqueeze and Squeezebox.
Can I make a suggestion? Irrationally, (or not), hearing that you have
got ports 9000 and 3483 open to the world gives me shivers...
What about using OpenSSH and forwarding those ports?

Yes, that's a problem - str
Mark,
I do not have Lame installed on the server, because all of my files are
FLAC files, and I stream FLAC directly to my Squeezeboxes. Will the
server not stream FLAC files remotely? I was using MediaMonkey which
can play FLAC files directly.
I will add Lame to the server when I get home today
For the remote software player, go to Player Settings - Audio - Bitrate
Limiting. The paragraph should indicate if LAME is properly installed.
Also go to Server Settings - File Types - File Format Conversion Setup.
You should check the MP3 conversion of every format you have (keep the
native form
I have set up my server so that it is accessible on the web. I have
opened port 9000 and 3483 in my router and verified that they are open.
I can bring up the Slimserver web interface on my server from my remote
site with no problem, however, I can't stream any music either with
Softsqueeze or Med
