systemd-sysctl uses the common logic for systemd-related config files: if you want to override /usr/lib/sysctl.d/protect-links.conf, you must do so in a file named /etc/sysctl.d/protect-links.conf . You can then verify this will work by checking the output of /lib/systemd/systemd-sysctl --cat-config HTH, Chris
