Isn't all kern.* read only?
Seems like it can't be changed more than it's in theory changeable

Something like the maximum nuber of files and processes, that is suposed to
be
soft configurable in login.conf (doesn't work either)

,D Does anything work in FreeBSD? ,D

In local.freebsd.hackers you write:

>Could anyone enlighten me on how to set the amount of shared memory?

If you mean the wretched System V IPCs, the parameters are in LINT.
Search for "SHM".

>I'd like that info for FreeBSD 2.2.2, 3.x, 4.x

The parameters only have descriptive comments in 4.2, but I think they
are the same in all releases (they're in LINT in RELENG_2 from '98 at
least).

    $.02,

P.S.  Hmm... there seems to be writable sysctl values  (e.g.
kern.ipc.shmmax).
      Maybe a kernel recompile isn't needed anymore.
