Wow! I didn't know that. I have been using apachectl restart all the time. Now I feel better that this feature will allow Apache to be running until people logged off of the website (by the mean of terminating the apache connection)....
Thanks!!! "Marek Kilimajer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] # apachectl graceful snip from manpage: graceful Gracefully restarts the Apache daemon by send� ing it a SIGUSR1. If the daemon is not run� ning, it is started. This differs from a nor� mal restart in that currently open connections are not aborted. A side effect is that old log files will not be closed immediately. This means that if used in a log rotation script, a substantial delay may be necessary to ensure that the old log files are closed before processing them. This command automat� ically checks the configuration files via con� figtest before initiating the restart to make sure Apache doesn't die.
