That would not be the unix way. The unix way is to read config files on startup and on HUP or USR. However signaling in the milter is problematic because libmilter does its own signal catching; that's braindead, if you ask me, but that's the way it is. -aCaB _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml
