I think I've fixed this issue in that version of the package. We do not ship it anymore. It might be a leftover from the previous versions. You can safely delete it. 

In the next version I'll take care of handling this stray file.

Package: iscsitarget 
Version: 1.4.20.2-6 
Severity: normal 

Dear Maintainer, 

on boot with my PC (kernel 3.0.0.2-686-pae), it seems there's a problem during the execution of the sysctl.d/30-iscsitarget script. 
in my /var/log/boot, I have the following error: 

Setting kernel variables ...error: "Invalid argument" setting key "net.ipv4.tcp_mem" 

I'm not sure of the consequences of this error on the package. 
It's probably just a matter of optimizing tcp options or not. 

I can easily reproduce the error by doing: 
$>/etc/init.d/procps restart 
Setting kernel variables ...error: "Invalid argument" setting key "net.ipv4.tcp_mem" 
failed. 

if I move temporary the /etc/init.d/ there no more error 

$> mv /etc/sysctl.d/30-iscsitarget.conf /tmp 
$> /etc/init.d/procps restart 
Setting kernel variables ...done. 


Cheers,
