Of course kenv is available on all platforms - it's the underlying mechanism for tunables! However, it does not vary from one boot to another, or even from one machine to another if they run the same FreeBSD version with the same device.hints and loader.conf on the same hardware configuration. (with the possible exception of a serial number if the SMBIOS provides one, but I have a room full of identical servers which all have serial number 123456) DES --=20 Dag-Erling Sm=C3=B8rgrav - des@des.no
