[users at bb.net] Reloading the master.cfg on Windows

Hello
I have noticed that when I do the following

   - update the master.cfg file
   - then do buildbot stop
   - followed by buildbot start in my buildmaster directory,
   -

the updated master.cfg doesn't seem to be re-read. so whenever I change the
master.cfg I have to reboot the entire PC before the changes are picked up.
Note: I am using Windows 7

How should I get buildbot to re-read the master.cfg once I have made
changes to it?
I tried buildbot sighup, but that is not supported on Windows, even
buildbot restart did not seem to work. Any suggestions.

Just in case I have missed this if I have both buildmaster and a buildlave
running,
and I want to restart everything because of a change to the master.cfg
file, should I
restart the master then the buildslave

On the buildmaster do

   - buildbot restart

On the buildslave do:

   - buildslave stop
   - buildslave start

or go the other way stop the buildslave, then restart the buildmaster?


Regards
