[sclug] Streaming audio

[Neil Haughton]

I have a good internet connection at work (Win XP Pro), and cable 
broadband at home (Mandrake 10.0) with a dynamic IP address and 
shorewall enabled.

My question is this: what do I have to do to stream mp3 audio at home so 
that I can listen to it at work? Can anyone advise?

Regards,

Neil.
