do a PS to detirmine the afpd parent process (it forks children)
then send it a normal kill signal
it will shut down all it's children gracefully
If you send a SIGHUP
it gives them 10 minutes grace, and a popup appears on teh clients to
tell them
to log off.
once the afpds are down
then just send a kill signal to atalkd
it should clean up pretty well
(depending on your OS, it may do a better job on some)
then just restart it.
In FreeBSD ifconfig ,route and netstat know about
netatalk so yu can clean up any thing that migh tbe left behind but
there
usuallyisn't much if anything.
then just restart atalkd and afpd as before..
