No and yes. :) There is no way built into fgms (and adding one would require thinking about the security implications) but I would guess that most fgms administrators have remote access to the box that runs the server. IIRC fgms can almost but not quite reload the configuration file when receiving a hangup (SIG_HUP) signal. Fixing that and/or adding the function to re-resolve the relay names each day (or so) could be useful. Something related: 06 changed IP address last weekend so servers that haven't been restarted since need to be restarted to relay correctly.
