Hello

can reload sysctl.conf don't restart server?


Thank You

Changing settings could disrupt whatever is running. But if you really want to do it,
# service sysctl restart

How can I load system default sysctl values without reloading server?

 

[DutchDaemon]

service sysctl restart or /etc/rc.d/sysctl restart

If you mean the sysctl values you had before you changed sysctl.conf: hope you have backups, or try ripping one from an installation CD (though some software/drivers/modules may insert their own sysctl's).

 /etc/rc.d/sysctl restart
sysctl: security.bsd.unprivileged_proc_debug=0 at line 10: Operation not permitted
sysctl: vfs.usermount=1 at line 11: Operation not permitted

You need to be root to be able to set those.
