George,

Cool, thanks!  Very good description of the need for this statement and
the errors it might invovle if certain proceedures are taken to restart
httpd and such.  I guess the issue has never surfaced here as I have a
totally different proceedure for doing restarts after archiving logs and
such, but, it has enlightened me enough to go fix all my conf files should
someone need to replace me and invoke other means to the end.

Thanks,

Ron DuFresne
