Hi,

How can I reload the preferences in the rc.conf file without
a system reboot. I want to make some changes in the rc.conf
file, but I don"t want to reboot the system, although I want
the new settings to take effect.

How can I change a servers IP address without a reboot? I
don't want to use the old one, just the new.

Thx.
