Re: Edited: <on-connect> / <on-disconnect> not working

Hi Jordan,

Here is my script:

#!/bin/bash

#[email protected]

printf "To:[email protected]\nFrom:[email protected]\nSubject: Remote host has connected to mountpoint $1 on the Backstream\n\n KPOV Icecast server on IcecastPi has detected a connection on the backstream." > /home/my_username/bin/on_connect.txt
/usr/bin/[email protected]  < /home/my_username/bin/on_connect.txt  >/home/my_username/bin/msmtp.log 2>&1

This script has rwx set for everyone (for debugging).

Thank you!
