kill -HUP `cat /etc/named.pid` does not reload name server

[LaConte, Rachel]

Thanks Osman,

Actually, I normally check the pid using ps and then use it to -HUP the pid.
But, it is in /var/named and has the
current pid.  I almost never forget to change the serial # in the zone files
when I make changes. :)

Any other ideas?
