The /etc/init.d/ directory contains scripts for starting, stopping, and reloading daemons. for example running: "/etc/init.d/exim reload" - will reload exim "/etc/init.d/exim stop" - will stop exim "/etc/init.d/exim start"- will start exim To send a signal to a process, you use the kill or killall command, and add the signal name at the end, so to send a HUP signal to exim, use "killall -HUP exim". Take a look at the man pages for these commands. > > -- > Giulio > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
