Instead of rebooting, you could use telinit to change the run level.
It will stop/start services as necessary to match the configuration

Actually, I tried that but for some reason telinit doesn't work
correctly. It doesn't shut down or start everything it's suppose to
when called up. I get no errors and I still don't know why. This is
why I have to reboot.
It's not uncommon for there to be missing "Kxx*" files in one of the
/etc/rc.d/rcX.d directories. Without them, the system won't stop those
processes.
It SHOULD start everything unless there are some pid files left in
/var/run that indicate the daemon is running when, in reality, it isn't.
For example, if you simply "kill -9 httpd", the /var/run/httpd.pid
file remains in place and a "service httpd start" won't start Apache
since the script thinks it's already running. Delete /var/run/httpd.pid
and the script will start Apache.
