Hi guys ,

I'm tryng to use the script on connect function of icecast.

This is my icecast xml files

     and mostly just contains the things you need to change.  We created

</icecast>

If you see , I call the bash script /etc/icecast2/bin/touch_connect

That is simply this

#!/bin/bash
touch /var/www/touch.touch

The script has 777 chmod permission and the directory /var/www/ have
permission to 777 -R .

How I can use this function or the function " on-disconnect " , that
doenst'work , too.

My icecast it's the 2.3.1 on my ybuntu 8.0.4 box.

Big thanks for the help

Best regards

Pierpaolo

are you sure the PATH environment is correctly populated? you might want 
to call the command by its absolute path.

If you want to use this in production you might want to get hold of 2.3.2
