Yes, that works, too. (I think "-c 4" is enough for firewall messages.)
However, I have the impression that /etc/init.d/klogd is updated more
often than /etc/sysctl.conf, and then you always have to remember to add
that option again afterwards. There have been significant changes to the
/etc/init.d scripts lately; I believe it has something to do with
achieving LSB compliance. sysctl.conf seems more static to me, therefore
I prefer to implement my customizations there. (This is probably less
important on Testing and almost entirely irrelevant on Stable, though.)
