Quoting Fbsd1 <fbsd1@a1poweruser.com>:

> How do I get the system to reread /etc/newsyslog.conf file with out
> rebooting the system?

This is usually done by sending a HUP signal with 'kill' to the  
newsyslog daemon. If this doesn't do it then you can kill the daemon  
and load it again with the script in /etc/rc.d/
