Is there a way to reload the settings file without shutting down the icecast server?

Specifically, what I want to do is add/remove relays without disconnecting the listening clients due to server shutdown.

You can send a HUP signal to cause a reload, things like add/remove of relays will apply and existing listeners will not be affected.
