I'm assuming I have enough upstream bandwidth because streaming to
multiple listeners on my old computer works fine. Both computers are on
the same network behind a router on a broadband connection.
I'm not really sure what to look for in the logs. What log do I need to
look at, access or error? The error log is set to debug level and I can
see the listener count go up and down, to as high as 3.
Cheers, Eric
