networking settings in sysctl.conf not applyed or overwritten Feb 6th 2013, 16:44 Hi all, I'm new to OpenSuse, but i have been using linux for about 10 years, usually using redhat based distro. I would like to tweak some /proc/sys/network/conf parameters and i tryed to do this permanently by adding some lines to /etc/sysctl.conf, but this seems to have no effect on the system. I thought this was caused by something which happens later in the boot sequence, reverting my modifications to the default, so i added some line in /etc/init.d/after.local, without any effect. At last I added a very simple "touch /root/test.txt" as last line of after.local, but after the reboot no test.txt was present in /root/ At this point a was totally confused! My question are : what is the right way to do some permanent modification to sysctl parameters ? And Is after.local scrpts really executed at boot ? I'm using opensuse 12.2 64 bit.
