PerlFreshRestart will reload the module and thus call Init, but PerlFreshRestart is only called when we fork a new process, it is not called between the first and second parsing of the config file at startup. That seems like a bug to me. If reading the config file twice is intended to ensure that subsequent re-reads on HUP will work, then *everything* should be the same, and that means if PerlFreshRestart is set, it ought to happen there as well. Oddly enough though, PerlFreshRestart is not required for this to work after a HUP, even though it would seem to make sense. Looking at my debug output, it appears that -HUP doesn't cause the cleanup handlers to be called, so the module is never unloaded. -- Kee Hinckley - Somewhere.Com, LLC http://consulting.somewhere.com/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm not sure which upsets me more: that people are so unwilling to accept responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate everyone else's.
