[icecast] newbie questions

[John Griffiths]

ok totally new here so please forgive me

i've got icecast up and running on an old 486 running on debian 2.2r2

I'm using shout to feed a playlist 

i can connect and listen over the local network no problem, but remote users are having no luck

its running at 128kbs to me locally.. (which is too fast for remote users)

do i need to re-encode the mp3's to a lower bitrate?

if so whats good?

thanks for putting up with inane questions

John
