Read configuration at runtime

[Igor Clark]

Hi Jarod,

If you mean in the way Apache reads .htaccess files, then as far as I  
understand, there isn't really any support for this in nginx; it reads  
its config at startup, and as Andre says, you need to tell it to  
reload the config using a signal.

Cheers,
Igor
