Reload Snort to use new ruleset

I understand the command *kill -SIGHUP <pid> *should reload Snort with the ability to read an updated ruleset. However, it only seems to kill it. I am manually adding new rules, so I would like to reload Snort to avoid any downtime monitoring. I used the -enable-reload switch when I compiled Snort on an Ubuntu OS. What am I missing? Thanks in advance, Rick As I understand the command *kill -SIGHUP <pid> *should reload Snort with the ability to read an updated ruleset; however, it only seems to kill it.
