echoing to it.  Can this be ignored?  Is there a way of either getting
this proc entry back or removing the script code that echoes to it?  I
must admit that I haven't looked at any of the files in /etc/rc.d with
great detail...
this is controlled by /etc/sysctl.conf

That only works with kernel 2.2.  This was changed sometime in 2.4.  I'm
almost positive it now defaults to on.  I seem to remember a comment from
Rusty Russell about not wanting to get e-mail from people who setup their
machine wrong.  Although I could be remembering something else.

I _have_ no /etc/sysctl.conf file...  I never have had...  I'll just have to
hunt through all my rc scripts to find it.
