<p>Thank you for your time...we made some changes to our config file and the server doesn't want to start with the command icecast -c /path/to/icecast.xml giving the error: </p>
<p><br>'Could not create listener socket on port 8000 Server startup failed. Exiting'</p>
<div><br>can you look at the config file bellow and let us know of any changes that might help. we need to be able to have 10,000 clients listening to the server at once. 1,000 to start and we want our mount point to be /stream1.mp3<br>
Thank you in advance</div>
