init 1
init 3

This switches your system to runlevel 1 (what is is when it starts up), and when you go back to runlevel 3, your system will "boot up" like it normally would do after a reboot.

  I know you can restart just a process by using 'kill -HUP pid', but what process do I need to restart after modifying /etc/rc.conf?  I've always rebooted the machine in the past, but I've heard you can have the rc.conf re-read.
