   Read the man page again.  Unless it has changed from my version of
dhcp, the dhcpd man page says the server is supposed to die from SIGTERM,
after which you are supposed to re-invoke it.  And the man page goes on to
admit a "HUP" would be nice, but if you want it, you have to modify the
server software yourself because they don't have time.
