Description
currently you can configure that BNC reloads its configuration in certain time intervals, e.g. once per day. See 'General > Reread configuration'.
But often it's necassary to reload at once after a change in the config. A restart would disconnect all connections and jobs, what is mostly not wanted.
It's usual to send a SIGHUP to the process, you want to reload.
From systemd: "...reload will reload a specific service. That means that the systemd will send a SIGHUP signal to a service, and that signal will tell the service to reload its configuration file."

Thank you for this hint. A SIGHUP signal to BNC will now result into a reload of its configuration file
