/var/log/thttpd.log is not rotated

[rick]

Causes /var to fill and die.

This signal tells thttpd to close and re-open its (non-syslog) log file, for instance if you rotated the logs and want it to start using the new one. This is a little tricky to set up correctly, for instance if you are using chroot() then the log file must be within the chroot tree, but it's definitely doable.
