Startup line

# /usr/local/ap-mailfilter3/bin/kas-restart [-f] [-p] [-s]
[-m] [-w] [–W] [-q] [-d] [–v] [-l]
[-V <details_level>] [-L <details_level>]
[-c <configuration_file>] [-k <kas-conf_script>] [-h]
Command line options:
• –f – restarts the ap-mailfilter filtering processes. The processes handle
messages and finish their work, depending on the specified delay for
finishing processes by time and number of messages (for additional
information, see section 4.5.3 on page 59);
• –p – restarts the master filtering process ap-process-server. This option
also restarts filtering processes ap-mailfilter. Using this option, filtering
processes are restarted immediately after the filtering process stops
checking the current message. This option is also used in modification of
settings related to starting filtering processes.
• –s – restarts the licensing module kas-licеnse.
• –m – restarts the kas-milter module.
• –w – restarts the web server kas-thttpd.
• –W – rotates log files of the kas-thttpd web server (creates a new log file).
• –q – enables “silent” mode, when only error messages and warning are
output to the screen.
–d – displays a detailed report about the operations performed by the utility.
–v – instruction to provide more verbose information in the messages output
to the console in comparison with the default level.
