How to get started?

Hi everyone I was wondering if anyone can help?? Im a newbie...
I followed the steps:

1) Download the DNAS. You can find it here: http://www.shoutcast.com/download/license.phtml
2) Run the file you just downloaded, this will install the DNAS.
3) Download the DSP. You can find it here: http://www.shoutcast.com/downloads/s...2b-windows.exe
3) Run the file you downloaded and this will install the DSP into Winamp.
4) In the Start menu find the "Edit SHOUTcast DNAS configuration" and change the password to something other then "changeme".
You can also take this time to change your listener count and port base if you wish.
5) Open Winamp and load the DSP (Ctrl + P > DSP/Effect > Nullsoft SHOUTcast Source)
6) In the window that pops up go to "Output" highlight "Output 1" and press "Connection".
7) For the address leave it at localhost if the DNAS is on the same machine, otherwise put in the IP of the machine with the DNAS.
8) If you changed the port in step 4 then put the value you entered in here.
9) Change the password to what you entered in step 4.
10) Change the "Encoder" to 1.
11) Click on the "Encoder" tab.
12) Select "Encoder 1" and change the type to "MP3 Encoder"
13) Set the "Encoder Settings" to the quality you want.
14) Start the DNAS (Start > SHOUTcast DNAS > SHOUTcast DNAS).
15) Play a song in Winamp and press "Connect" under the "Output" tab of the DSP.[/SIZE]



But now im stuck on this:

To broadcast your stations using the SHOUTcast 2.0 platform you must register your SHOUTcast DNAS2 servers with us. This provides a level of security for your station and authenticates it with the registered information. After you fill out the registration form, you will be given an Authentication Key which you must enter into your DNAS2's configuration file. Click the 'Add Station' link below to get started.

Im confused and i would be greatful for some help
Thank you

most of what has been copy+pasted by makmunce is referring to the older v1 SHOUTcast tools which do not have the support for the authorisation key (the part i have quoted) which does clearly mention it is for v2 servers.

i guess it doesn't help that the v1 files are still listed on the download page...
