Personally, I prefer sysctl for that. Works better with sudo.


I agree that sysctl (or a similar tool - i'm not religious in this area) is probably wanted, albeit not required on a system. Like I stated somewhere else, sysctl "only" modifies things in /proc/sys that you could easili do with something else. There is nothing that you can do with sysctl that you can't do with echo, cat and find. Apart from having a simple way to set a lot of different values in one go.
