Hi Arnd, Sure - I will give that a try.
But how will that be any different to the section in /etc/init.d/proftpd that checks for the existence of /var/run/proftpd and creates it if it is not present? It looks like this: # /var/run could be on a tmpfs [ ! -d /var/run/proftpd ] && mkdir /var/run/proftpd And if I stop the proftpd service, manually delete /var/run/proftpd then start the proftpd service again the /var/run/proftpd directory is correctly created and the service starts. I am just asking out of curiosity as I have no idea what /etc/init/mounted-varrun is used for! I will add that line in now and let you know how it goes.
