If you want to set kernel variables +you can either edit /etc/sysctl.conf or make a new file. + +The filename isn't important, but don't make it a package name as it may clash +with something the package builder needs later. It must end with .conf though. + +My personal preference would be for local system settings to go into +/etc/sysctl.d/local.conf but as long as you follow the rules for the names +of the file, anything will work. See sysctl.conf(8) man page for details +of the format. + +After making any changes, please run "service procps force-reload" (or, from +a Debian package maintainer script "deb-systemd-invoke restart procps.service"). |
