I wonder why the netbase maintainer decided not to mention this to me...

I'll put them into an example file.

Bug#331192: procps: please offer replacement for /etc/network/options

2005-10-02 Thread Marc Haber
Package: procps
Version: 1:3.2.5-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

the netbase package has unloaded the burden of setting rp_filter,
ip_forwarding and syncookies on procps by simply removing support for
/etc/network/options and "documenting" the transition as "should be
replaced by values in /etc/sysctl.conf or equivalent custom scripts".

I would love to see procps picking up the job by delivering appopriate
settings with documentation in the default version of
/etc/sysctl.conf, maybe even by parsing /etc/network/options in the
postinst.

Greetings
Marc
