[mythtv-users] Softbooting the box

Folks,

  When doing some 'work' on the box it is common to first terminate
mythfrontend but also sometimes to terminate the backend, and then to
access remotely the filesystem for whatever purposes. When the work is
done, I once tried to simply restart the backend process - which it did
- but ran into problems with the frontend.  So I had to reboot to get a
clean system.

  Is there a way to softboot the whole system (eg. some kind of 'kill
-HUP') instead of rebooting the box.

Thanks,

Al
