Re: how to restart network without rebooting

[ikmal@nasionet.net]

mm..

it mean that BSD need to reboot to make everything ok..
did it have any option like linux...

I mean at linux, after I change the setting with network, I go to single mode
(init 1), then go to multi mode (init 3) to make sure everything is ok.

did OpenBSD have the options to make the thing like that?
for the network, like all have discuss using
sh /etc/netstart

Can I do like linux? go to single mode and then back to multi mode?
or...
Can I restart the init (I think all of this control by init), I mean:
kill -HUP ps_of_init / kill -1 ps_of_init

p/s: sorry for my bad english.

Thanks,
Ikmal
