Further investigation: it does re-read the config.
It just doesn't log that it did it.

This may be a problem because *sometime* it doesn't reload the ssl
certificates not noticing that they have changed. 

Do I need to put something special in the conf file to achieve that?

Thanks again,

Luciano.
