Stop and restart the Name Server Cache Daemon (nscd).

I have edited the /etc/nsswitch.conf and /etc/resolv.conf to the settings we require. We have stopped and started the ypbind service but it is not changing over to use the DNS settings. The only way we can get it too pick up the new settings is to reboot the machine but unfortunatley this is not an option with some current live servers. Is there a way of getting this change to be dynamic.
