documentation for sysctl MIB

2008-11-06 Thread Ole
Hello maillist, 

I have to small question
- Where i can get documentation for description some base sysctl variables?
- And, what the diffrence between 
sysctl hw.machine hw.machine_arch
?

For example, i extract i386 installation, but my hardware is EM64T  and 
supporting AMD64 distribution correctly. Both variable get i386 value. One of 
them must be amd64?

Thanks for your time

try sysctl -d $oid
for example:

(10:23:56 ~) 0 $ sysctl -d hw.machine hw.machine_arch
hw.machine: Machine class
hw.machine_arch: System architecture
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
(10:24:12 ~) 0 $ sysctl  hw.machine hw.machine_arch
hw.machine: amd64
hw.machine_arch: amd64
