You can force it without restarting with the following commands:
For smbd
smbcontrol smbd reload-config
For nmbd:
smbcontrol nmbd reload-config
For winbind:
smbcontrol winbindd reload-config
The process number can also be used instead of the daemon's name.
For samba version > 3.3 you can force all 3 daemon's to reload
configuration with the following command:
smbcontrol all reload-config
that's great never new about them cmd's. So does it periodically monitor
the config then :)
The reason I ask is I made some changes but didn't restart samba as I
wasn't ready. But the next day just when I finished work there a problem
with a client pc that I could have put down to the changes. Basically a
hosts allow option.
I didn't have time to look into it as we were shutting for the day but
that would have explained it.
I will check it out on Monday.
Thanks
