786	Proftpd uses /var/run/proftpd	nathan@…	bdubbs@…	"http://archive.linuxfromscratch.org/mail-archives/blfs-dev/2004-June/006620.html

The /var/run directory is deleted on bootup, including files and directories. 
With a recent version of the LFS Bootscripts [from LFS 5.1 or later], you can
create the directory on bootup using

echo ""/var/run/proftpd dir 644 root root"" >> /etc/sysconfig/createfiles

Otherwise, it should be modified to use /var/run, instead of a subdirectory."	defect	closed	high		BOOK	SVN	medium	invalid
