/etc/sysconfig/modules
I have no idea why all these modules need to be loaded manually. The respective tools like ip6tables, strongswan and so on will do that when needed.
Me neither. The documentation stems from a forum thread where this was specified.
/etc/sysctl.conf
It is probably better to create /etc/sysctl.d and then have a file in that directory that overwrites the default settings in /etc/sysctl.conf
Thx, will change this and the other points you mentioned.
I guess for this we will need to change the initscripts. It should be an easy change and we will gain the advantage that we can drop in any sort of configuration file without overwriting anything. This is also handy for any add-ons that need to change any of the sysctl settings. There was no need for this feature yet, but we have it in IPFire 3 and are using it quite often.
