<< kill -HUP PID

If that worked for all daemons I would agree.

If you are running a daemon you should know how to use it.

I understand that, but if I understood it when I set it up oh so long ago and all of a sudden need to restart it, it's much easier to type /etc/init.d/service restart' than to read a few man pages, then kill and restart some processes manually.

And to add a services all I need to do is copy the Debian skeleton script, add a few lines, and make appropriate symlinks and I'm done.
