There probably is, but I'm not the guy to ask. Linux today is as or more fragmented than UNIX of old. > On 21 Jan 2018 10:33, "David Klann" <[email protected]> wrote: > > That is a temporary "fix": /var/run (which is a symbolic link to /run) > > is a so-called "ephemeral" directory; that is, it is created on system > > boot by one of the system daemons (varies depending on your startup > > system (SysV Init or systemd). That depends on the OS. Many, it's not ephemeral at all. Set the permissions once on the hard link, and be done with it. On those OS that do create directories on RAM, well, you're kinda sorta on your own. Most of them are trying to kill off rc.local as well. I've lately become very disenchanted with RHEL ( and therefore CentOS ) as they seem to be headed and lead by the same evangelists that were insisting on some things rejected by the general *nix community back around 1988 or so as really bad ideas. It's unfortunate that Linux has become so fragmented and infused with such evangelistic bad ideas, but so it goes.
