.Sh DESCRIPTION
This command sends a
.Dv SIGHUP
to the running name server.
This
signal is documented in
.Xr named @SYS_OPS_EXT@ .
.Sh BUGS
Does not check to see if the name server is actually running, and could
use a stale PID cache file which may result in the death of an unrelated
process.
This command runs
.Xr ndc @SYS_OPS_EXT@
which reloads the running name server.

Does not wait after killing the old server before starting a new one; since
the server could take some time to die and the new one will experience a
fatal error if the old one isn't gone by the time it starts, you can be left
in a situation where you have no name server at all.
