Thanks wmp -- as always, you are the man!

will the refresh -s inetd reset telnet sessions or anything like that?  basically -- should I wait until there is not production stuff running before doing the refresh?


All sessions will remain running.

When using refresh the inetd (the parent of these sessions) will not be killed, but only forced to re-read its configuration.
This means, however, that an existing session (e.g. a running ftpd) will not notice the configuration change.
You will have to terminate your ftp session and restart it in order for the change to take effect.

Thanks!
