Usually, the rc.d scripts do a stop and start for the "restart" option. A "reload" option will typically do the HUP.

Now that I know, I might give it a chance... ;) As Mark says, there might be some delay in letting Samba handle it itself. This will not be sufficiently deterministic when you\'re working with a problem and trying different options to fix it. Regardless, when I enacted the \"use client driver\" parameter in smb.conf, even doing an \"smb restart\" (which I assume does a kill -HUP under the covers) was not sufficient to make the change take effect. I had to stop/start. Cheers, Vic -- Vic Cross MACS mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
