telinit q tells the init process to reread the inittab file. It does not restart daemons; it tells init to reread inittab. This can be handy if you have uncommented getty processes on serial lines or added extra consoles and want init to spawn a getty on them without a reboot; or you may have commented some serial lines out and want init to not allow logins on them anymore.
