NAMED.RELOAD(8)

NAME
       named.reload  -  cause  the name server to synchronize its
       database

DESCRIPTION
       This command sends a SIGHUP to the  running  name  server.
       This signal is documented in named(8).

BUGS
       Does  not check to see if the name server is actually run-
       ning, and could use a  stale  PID  cache  file  which  may
       result in the death of an unrelated process.
