 kill -HUP `cat /var/run/httpd.pid`



 If you execute this as nobody, I believe it will work, but I haven't

 tested it.

nope, it won't, as you need to be the owner to send a signal to a process.

And if the web server is running as nobody, as it probably should be,
then... ?

Yes, you can make Apache reload a config file without restarting. You 
must send it a SIGHUP:

kill -HUP `cat /var/run/httpd.pid`

If you execute this as nobody, I believe it will work, but I haven't 
tested it.

Also, I believe Apache will restart when given a kill -1. If the above 
suggestions works, so will this.

Happy hacking.
