      Hello, is there a way to reload changes to config.xml automatically without having to reboot Pfsense every time a change is made. Changes made via a python script do not take effect until Pfsense is rebooted.

        ????

        I don't recall having to reboot when changes are made. At most a service has to be restarted, but pfSense remains running.

        PfSense running on Qotom mini PC
        i5 CPU, 4 GB memory, 32 GB SSD & 4 Intel Gb Ethernet ports.
        UniFi AC-Lite access point

        I haven't lost my mind. It's around here...somewhere...

          @Rapho have youo read "Manually editing the configuration > Edit In Place" in the docs?

          As in remove the /tmp/config.cache and restart/save/reload the part of the config you changed?
