<p>I was thinking about setting up a completely different server for
the purposes of my relay so that I can start and stop it with a
chron job--start the server when I need the relay and stop it when
the need for the relay is over, all with the standard icecast2
script in /etc/init.d. If I add the relay block to my existing
Icecast confriguration file, won't that relay be in effect--won't
it be always on--until I remove the relay block and reload the
config? In other words, I only need the relay for a certain block
of hours on a certain day, after that, no more. Maybe I'm doing
this all the wrong way?</p>
