Bill,

The sysctl.conf folder is on my desktop and I tried to enter the command lines 
into terminal but when I hit the enter key after entering a line I get  the 
word "password" and I can't go any farther.  So then I retried by entering the 
lines in one continuous  string with a space between lines and rebooted but no 
luck.  I am not familiar with entering commands into terminal.  I think I must 
not be entering the commands properly.
