I have a dog at home and I suspect that he is doing a lot of barking. I
want to be able to monitor sounds from home at the office. How do I do
that? I looked at Shoutcast but I think that is for serving mp3 files.

AFAICR shoutcast has an option to stream whatever input you want - tell it
to stream your soundcard input (presumably a mic)to the shoutcast server
and pick it up at work.
I can't remember how I did it but I had a similar setup for monitoring what
was going on in my roon while I was away.

Use ICQ or something similar. You can even tell him to shut up then. You
might want to avoid this if your dog is able to type or speak. You can meet
some unsavory characters through IRC and if your dog is likely to blurt your
home address and the fact that you're at work, you might come home to find
the house empty... or worse!

Alternatively, web cam software often comes with the facility to monitor
sound and vision from a camera/mic position.

Chris Thanks for your help. I'm having difficulty finding info on AFAICR
Shoutcast. Is it a seperate plugin, or is it part of the Shoutcast plugin?

Sorry - using abbreviations - what I meant was As Far As I Can Remember and
was referring to ordinary shoutcast.

Don't bother me. I'm living happily ever after.
