quick question

[Kerry Hoath]

telinit q tells the init process to reread the inittab file.
It does not restart daemons; it tells init to reread inittab.
This can be handy if you have uncommented getty processes
on serial lines or added extra consoles and want init to spawn a getty on
them without a reboot; or you
may have commented some serial lines out and want init to not
allow logins on them anymore.

Regards, Kerry.
