On a 4.2 I have.. [roam@ringworld:v2 ~]$ limits | fgrep maxproc maxprocesses 256 [roam@ringworld:v2 ~]$ On another console: [root@ringworld:v0 /etc]# perl -pi -e 's/maxproc=256/maxproc=512/' login.conf [root@ringworld:v0 /etc]# Logout and re-login on the first one: [roam@ringworld:v2 ~]$ limits | fgrep maxproc maxprocesses 512 [roam@ringworld:v2 ~]$ Feels quite changeable to me :) And btw - no, almost none of the kern.* sysctls are read-only. [root@ringworld:v0 /etc]# sysctl kern.coredump kern.corefile kern.syncdelay ker n.consmute kern.coredump: 1 kern.corefile: %N.core kern.syncdelay: 30 kern.consmute: 0 [root@ringworld:v0 /etc]# sysctl -w kern.coredump=0 kern.corefile='%N.CORE' ker n.syncdelay=100 kern.consmute=1 kern.coredump: 1 -> 0 kern.corefile: %N.core -> %N.CORE kern.syncdelay: 30 -> 100 kern.consmute: 0 -> 1 [root@ringworld:v0 /etc]# ..to name an (almost) random sample :) G'luck, Peter -- This would easier understand fewer had omitted.
