So, the server will behave like a real daemon - if a log file has been set in the config, it will detach from stderr and attach to that file. You can also set SIGHUP and it will detect if config changed and detach from old file and attach to new new file. It will also close and open existing unchanged handlers on SIGHUP. logrotate(8) here we come!
