I'd like to be able to restart spamd (the SpamAssassin daemon) from a web page, so that it will reload its system config files. Currently, I'm only worried about Debian; my SA is from the testing (Sarge) distro, and I'm running Apache 1.3. I don't have any other signals to send, or commands, and no dynamic values other than the pid (which I can read just fine from /var/run/spamd.pid).
Basically, there are half-a-dozen different ways to get this to happen, but all of them spend 3/4 of their documentation saying "DON'T EVER DO THIS". I'm just wondering if anyone has recommendations for whose advice to ignore first. ;) Detailed explanations of your choice would be much appreciated, of course.
