Find the PID of inetd and send it a SIGHUP

Explanation:
From the man pages:
inetd reads the configuration-file and the default settings in /etc/default/inetd once when it starts up and rereads them again whenever it receives a hangup signal, SIGHUP. New services can be activated and existing services can be deleted or modified by editing the configuration-file and then sending inetd a SIGHUP signal.
