Heh, I was just about to ask about this before you committed. This
actually applies to all of our rc.conf settings. It looks like a lot are
of the form:
case ${tcp_keepalive} in
[Yy][Ee][Ss])
echo -n ' TCP keepalive=YES'
sysctl -w net.inet.tcp.always_keepalive=1 >/dev/null
;;
esac
Again, I suck at shell scripting, so I need some help with the
interpretation. Does this mean that TCP keepalive=NO will do nothing, and
the kernel default will stick?
Thanks,
Mike "Silby" Silbersack
