What is the “right” way to run a sysctl command when the system boots up? I’ve read that using the /etc/rc.* files is discouraged. I want to run this command to enable large amounts of shared memory when the system boots:

sysctl -w kern.sysv.shmmax=0x80000000 kern.sysv.shmseg=8 kern.sysv.shmall=0x80000000

Thanks,

Norm Green
