Will it re-read it's config file if a 'kill -1 PidOfXdm' is run? -----Original Message----- From: Ingo Strauch [mailto:brack@the-one-brack.org] Sent: Friday, June 17, 2005 6:25 AM To: suse-xfree86@suse.com Subject: Re: [suse-xfree86] Is it possible to force the xdm to reload settings?

can anybody tell me, if it is possible to tell the xdm to reload its settings. I told the server to listen to tcp connections in /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers and if possible I do not want to restart the whole graphical system.
sure, restart X, ie: "init 3", "init 5"
But this then restarts the GUI which is what he wants to avoid. Cheers, Ingo -- Ingo Strauch ---- Registered Linux User #227900 (http://counter.li.org/) GPG Key Fingerprint = DEC8 1B12 9573 6BE7 7A99 C33F 809C 8C2C 772E 66A1 http://www.the-one-brack.org/
