Hi, I have the 1 GB RAM 30 GB Disk vps. I added the swap looking at another question (SWAPFILE) [code] echo “vm.swappiness=0” | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.cnf
sudo sysctl -p
sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1024 count=256k
sudo mkswap /swapfile
sudo chown root:root /swapfile
sudo chmod 0600 /swapfile
sudo swapon /swapfile
echo “/swapfile none swap sw 0 0” | sudo tee -a /etc/fstab [/code] Is this ok.

@Igor: That is correct, but renaming sysctl.cnf to sysctl.conf replaces sysctl.conf and removes the old settings.
