Overview
distmp3 is the client part of distmp3, a utility for distributed mp3-encoding across multiple hosts on a network.
The client connects to a remote host on port 4600 and a handshake occurs.
If the handshake goes well, the client will open the wav-file for reading and the mp3-file for writing.
The client then starts sending raw data from the wav-file across the network to the daemon, which sends it back to the client who writes it down in a file.
Default values are used if none specified, and those defaults are read from /etc/distmp3/distmp3.conf
