I believe you said in an earlier post that your "shop" machine is running Ubuntu 10.4 LTS/Lucid. On my Lucid machine, there is indeed an inetd process: $ ps u -C inetd USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND root 1015 0.0 0.0 10372 696 ? Ss Feb08 0:00 /usr/sbin/inetd ... and the inetd/inetd.conf man page contains the following lines: inetd rereads its configuration file when it receives a hangup signal, SIGHUP. Services may be added, deleted or modified when the configuration file is reread. These are part of the "openbsd-inetd" package: $ dpkg -S inetd.conf.5 openbsd-inetd: /usr/share/man/man5/inetd.conf.5.gz So running $ sudo invoke-rc.d openbsd-inetd reload should trigger the config-file reload. Hopefully that will be enough to get Amanda working again on that machine...
