>Description:
I try to raise kern.mbuf.nmbclusters from 1024 to 2048 wich,
according to the manpage, should be possible. It is not.
>How-To-Repeat:
root@uberhost:~/home/karsten> sysctl kern.mbuf.nmbclusters
kern.mbuf.nmbclusters = 1024
root@uberhost:~/home/karsten> sysctl -w kern.mbuf.nmbclusters=2048
sysctl: kern.mbuf.nmbclusters: sysctl() failed with Operation not permitted
>Fix:
I have no fix.
