Comment:
Well, this was easier than I thought. From dhcpd.8:
{{{
Note: We get a lot of complaints about this. We realize that it would
be nice if one could send a SIGHUP to the server and have it reload the
database. This is not technically impossible, but it would require a
great deal of work, our resources are extremely limited, and they can
be better spent elsewhere. So please don't complain about this on the
mailing list unless you're prepared to fund a project to implement this
feature, or prepared to do it yourself.
}}}
I checked Fedora anyway, and they return an error if someone tries to run
the initscript with reload. This should be fixed in r7153.
