|
|
I'm not sure if I should post this as a feature request:
Is there a possibility of letting icecast re-reading its configuration, say something like sending a HUP signal?
Another thing: Includes of additional files into the configuration would be useful. Eg. to divide the configuration in a global server part and a mountpoint (or per-mountpoint) part. |

Yes, by sending an HUP icecast will reread the configuration and therefore capture the changes you have made (passwords, new mountpoints, etc)

Icecast does this already, just send it a SIGHUP.
Multiple files for the config can be done easily - the config is an XML file, so standard XML entity inclusion can be done (I haven't actually tried it, but there's no reason it shouldn't work).

Thanks you two for telling me the thing with -s HUP. That's great!
Concerning the entity inclusion, how does this work?
Is it the "old way" by putting an <link href="..."> into the source file? |
