[Snort-inline-users] Restarting snort_inline with SIGHUP.

[C.G.Senthilkumar. <che...@cs...>]

Hi,
This is the command line I use to invoke snort_iniline on FreeBSD 4.10 with
ipfw on it:
/usr/local/bin/sudo /usr/local/bin/snort_inline -J 500 -c /users/someuser/snort/snort_inline-2.3.0-RC1/etc/snort_inline.conf -D

Once in a while, I update the rules files. Now, I want snort_inline to read in
the updated rules files, so I send it a SIGHUP signal using:
sudo kill -s HUP 2381

sudo tail -n 1 /var/log/message gives:
May 23 14:14:28 node1 snort_inline: Snort initialization completed successfully
(pid=2381)

However, I don't see snort_inline running after sending the SIGHUP.

Is there a problem with using sudo and sending SIGHUP? What am I missing here?
Except for restarting, other things seem to work fine.

Any help will be very useful.

Thanks in advance.
Senthil.
