If the sysctl's are read only that you want to change slap them in your /boot/loader.rc \ Increase MBUF's for purpose of testing Postfix under alot of connections. set kern.ipc.nmbclusters=65536 That is what I have on mine to increase mbuf's. But I beat Postfix to death with benchmarks and testing it for the book. heh Also you can set the above to read only variables in /boot/loader.rc as well. Then they take effect after reboot. Maxfiles is what i usually hit first, then ipc.sockets. Mbuf's havent been a real problem :) ============================================================================= -Chris Watson (316) 326-3862 | FreeBSD Consultant, FreeBSD Geek Work: scanner@jurai.net | Open Systems Inc., Wellington, Kansas Home: scanner@deceptively.shady.org | http://open-systems.net ============================================================================= WINDOWS: "Where do you want to go today?"
