OK, I am learning, slowly but surely. Now I need to know how to send a SIGHUP. I don't think it is good for my system to keep rebooting every time I make a change in qmail. In /var/qmail/bin I have qmail-start, but have not been able to locate a qmail-restart or a qmail-stop anywhere. If I

To send qmail a SIGHUP: type: killall -SIGHUP qmail this will send a SIGHUP to all processes running that are named qmail. or, type: ps -e and find qmail on the list. then: kill -SIGHUP the pid of qmail you saw in the output of ps

Yes, but doing SIGHUP's is not qmail related. It's a general unix issue, so you may read the Config-HOWTO, to find it you can use www.google.com Tom OK, I am learning, slowly but surely. Now I need to know how to send a SIGHUP. I don't think it is good for my system to keep rebooting
