Most programs will usually restart when killed with a SIGHUP. To load the new database files, run ‘ps -aux’ to get the pid (process ID) of ‘named. Then run ‘kill -HUP pid’ where ‘pid’ is the ID of ‘named’. Also remember to update your serial number in your DNS files, so as to allow for propagation to other DNS servers.
