sysconfigtab vs. sysconfig output

I have used sysconfigdb to change 2 proc parameters and 2 vm parameters (in
hopes of assuaging Netscape Enterprise Server, which after a few hours fails on
HTTP GETs with "error opening buffer from /path/doc : not enough space").

The sysconfigdb command completed successfully and updated /etc/sysconfigtab.
Howver, after rebooting and confirming the changes with "sysconfig -q proc",
one parameter, max-procs-per-user, as 267, though the table shows that I set
it to 512. Why would this be?

Thanks for any thoughts. I don't think this one parameter is life or death; the
others were the most interesting (proc: max-threads-per-user; vm:
vm-mapentries; vm-vpagemax). However, it would be good to understand more about
how all this works!
