Description Martin von Gagern 2007-02-09 16:35:39 UTC
The init script for radvd, the IPv6 Router Advertisement Daemon, should provide a reload option. Especially in connection with 6to4 setups, sending a SIGHUP to the daemon upon changes to the IPv4 address are important, and the init script is the obvious place for this.

Patch to /etc/init.d/radvd to provide reload option

This is patchwork from the functions already present in that file:
The configcheck and forward control from start and the start-stop-daemon from stop, augmented by "--signal HUP --oknodo" as seen in other init scripts.
