Hello managers,

and got the right answer from Rui Wang <rwang@bio.ri.ccf.org>:
>kill fs process.
My misunderstanding with this was that we use afs filesystem and
there is a fileserver and a command "fs" (that name confuses me :)
But i could have seen from /etc/inetd.conf
fs stream tcp wait nobody /usr/openwin/lib/fs.auto fs
and "ps -ef"
nobody 4632 167 1 09:10:30 ? 0:00 fs
that "my" fs process is *really* the fontserver running.
Killing that resulted in an immediately restarted "fs" process
that "knows" about my changes in the config-file.
