After a reboot the application no more started. So I tried to start the script in the init.d directory and the output complained about a directory missing: >./tor start There is no /var/run/tor directory. Therefore I created it and then the application once again started successful. After a reboot then the directory under /var/run was gone. So the application failed on on the load. My question is why this manual created directory under /var/run always get lost after the reboot ? What do i need to do that it stays ? Any information is appreciated. Thanks Holger </BODY> </HTML>
