-HUP works and works just fine. The problem comes in with having Snort run as a non-root user and/or in a chroot setup. I know, that's not much of a difference, but it is a fairly big one. It's been around for a long time... So long it's even in the FAQ (6.19). It's amazing what we hide in there isn't it? ;-)

Need to HUP it? Don't use -u -g or -t.
