- Kernel system variables configuration files
-
- Files found under the /etc/sysctl.d directory that end with .conf are
- parsed within sysctl(8) at boot time. If you want to set kernel variables
- you can either edit /etc/sysctl.conf or make a new file.
-
- The filename isn't important, but don't make it a package name as it may clash
- with something the package builder needs later. It must end with .conf though.
-
- My personal preference would be for local system settings to go into
- /etc/sysctl.d/local.conf but as long as you follow the rules for the names
- of the file, anything will work. See sysctl.conf(8) man page for details
- of the format.
