You're welcome. I prefer "3..." so that I only get errors and worst on the console... I've switched a few months ago to adding a file to "/etc/sysctl.d/" rather than editing "/etc/sysctl.conf" (but muscle memory still defaults to the latter, sorry!) so that apt can update "/etc/sysctl.conf" to its heart's content should it want to. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
