Hi there,

What is the procedure to make active changes made to /etc/natd.conf?

Sometimes, restarting the natd process with an HUP drops my connection.  
Other times the restart didn't seem to make any difference.  The only 
way I've ever updated natd rules was to restart the server and never was 
able to find anything relating to this topic online.

Any other options?

Thanks.
