How to gracefully restart lighttpd

Gracefully here meaning without loosing any request which is in processing (request which are not accepted yet might still be rejected)

Send SIGINT to lighttpd and then start new instance of it - the one received INT will stop listening for new connections but it will finish all connections it already accepted and exit after it
killall -INT lighttpd && lighttpd -f config_file

Running ASP.Net with Lighttpd on FreeBSD

As a first step for running asp.net applications using lighttpd webserver on FreeBSD you need to download source for xsp from mono project site. Here follow instructions for patching and compiling this source in order to run (hopefully) better on FreeBSD. These instructions apply to xsp-2.10.2

You need to patch following files
1. src/Mono.WebServer.FastCgi/Record.cs (patch Record.cs < Record.cs.diff)
2. src/Mono.WebServer.FastCgi/UnmanagedSocket.cs
3. src/Mono.WebServer.FastCgi/main.cs
