DESCRIPTION
Themount_sysctlfs
program provides the
sysctl(8) hierarchy through the file system namespace. It is possible
to browse the tree, query node values and modify them. By default, the node
contents are interpreted as ASCII. If the -r
flag is
given, the server uses raw mode and displays node contents as they are
received from the kernel (binary).

utility first appeared
in NetBSD 5.0.

] does not currently support
node modification.
