As I said it worked for me doing the reread.  The documentation says you
have to restart the daemons so I noted it as such.  I didn't try without
the reread so it might have worked as you say.

Never had to do any of this.....the message that pops up telling you you
need to bounce the daemons can be ingnored in my experience....once you
turn on the VNETD radio button, or the "no connect back" check box,
depending on version, click OK, and it works.
No need to bounce anything or re-read any configs IME.
