Icecast - Apr 2006 - Dynamic Mount Points

Hello,

It doesn't look like it, but Is it possible to add mount points without 
resetting icecast? This would be pretty cool.

If you mean <mount> definitions, yes, you need to send HUP after the 
change. win32 still needs a hook for that to trigger yet.

Yes.

If you just want to add a normal mountpoint, you just need to connect
a source client - it's completely automatic.

If you want to add a mountpoint with specific configuration options
(in the config file), then you can do that too. Just edit your config
file, save it, and send icecast a SIGHUP. This will make icecast
re-read the config file, applying any changes.
