Which is a little non-POLA, but then I guess rereading its config and restarting, like most things do on -HUP, probably doesn't make sense. Anyhow, I think 'N' isn't needed if you don't specify a pidfile in the first place .. then only syslogd gets sent a SIGHUP, which never hurts. (if I'm reading newsyslog.conf right) Cheers, Ian (due to upgrade to mpd 4.2.2 on 5.5-S soon .. will report) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
