Icecast - Aug 2004 - how to specify remote dump file from the source?

Hi,

I see that the server side stream dump feature is now implemented, as I 
see the dump-file tag in the icecast config file. I have a question 
though: is it possible to specify the server side dump file via the 
source login protocol?

Thanks,

<p>Akos

But: it works this way in icecast 1.x
also, this feature is very useful?
and what are the security considerations? icecast must be run as a 
properly limited user, and all is secure.

as for usefulness: this is very useful indeed. the live radio stream I 
do is done in 4 hour sessions, with each session saved under a different 
file-name for archiving. how would I achieve the same effect without the 
streaming encoder client telling icecast the name of the archive to save?

<p>No. Security issues aside (and those would require significant
thought), this
seems like something of fairly limited usefulness.
