How to reload AppleFileServer without unloading it?

Question

I am using this commands to restart my AppleFileServer for sharing. But how I can reload it, without killing, or unloading it?

sudo killall DirectoryService
sudo AppleFileServer
sudo launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.AppleFileServer.plist
sudo launchctl load -F /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.AppleFileServer.plist

P.S. The reason I'm asking when I kill it or unload, connection is getting disconnected. I want to reload it without losing connection.
