Proper location for sysctl

Hello all,

On my Fedora box the sysctl file is on:
/etc/sysctl.cfg

On my SuSE box it's in:
/etc/sysconfig/sysctl (without the cfg extension).

I tried looking on LSB and FHS but couldn't find anything related to this. I'm 
just curious...Where should it reside?  I think such an important file should 
be in a standard location in all major distros.

Jorge
