How to inform all the daemons I have modified the smb.conf file

[chenyun_zhou]

Hello, everyone
 
I edit the lp_load() of the samba source that this fuction may modify the smb.conf sometimes. How can I let all the samba  daemons know that?
 
Restarting samba service may cause all link break up.
     
Thanks!

Samba periodically checks the configuration file and adjusts its
behavior accordingly.

But when I send the -HUP single, it reread smb.conf, but its permission does not affected. is there any wrong?
 
for example :
before changed
..
[test]
    path = /usr/src/test
    read only = yes
    read list = jim
 
after changed
  ...
 [test]
   path = /usr/src/test
   read only = no
   write list = jim
 
after reload the configuration file, aready connected client's permission on "test" not changed.

No, that's expected. The permissions on a connected share
are only evaluated at connect time. Once a client has
connected, that can't be changed until the next reconnect.

But, I found something really diffrent, after change the permission of a share, and its permission will changed after a time about 1 or 2 minutes.
