Sysctl doesn't work in pfsense 2.1-release
-
Hi
I add this line to rc file and rc.initial file :/sbin/sysctl kern.consmute=1 >/dev/null
then i add this to config.xml:
<tunable>kern.consmute</tunable> <value>1</value>
and this to /etc/sysctl.conf:
kern.consmute=1
but when i reboot system, kern.consmute is 0!
Why sysctl doesn't work in pfsense? -
Why don't you add this through the gui?
It handles all the temporary/volatile file handling for you. -
How? I want to change sysctl value permanently.

System –> Advanced --> System Tunables

I added kern.consmute=1 from GUI. it doesn't work. :( after system reboot, consmute is 0;
i execute this command from shell:sysctl kern.consmute
result is kern.consmute: 0
-
Why kern.consmute can not be set in pfsense 2.1-release? i didn't have this problem with 2.0 and 2.1-rc.

It does work for me.
After a reboot i get:
[2.1-RELEASE][root@pfsense.maynet]/root(1): sysctl kern.consmute kern.consmute: 1

It doesn't work on virtualbox and vmware. Do you have installed pfsense on a real machine?
-
Yes this is on an ALIX.
