>Release:        FreeBSD 2.2-CURRENT i386
>Environment:
In /etc/sysconfig:

router=/usr/local/sbin/gated

>Description:

After /etc/netstart starts gated, /etc/rc executes
	(cd /var/run && { rm -rf -- *; cp /dev/null utmp; chmod 644 utmp; })

Thus, /var/run/gated.pid which gated made, is deleted.

>How-To-Repeat:

Use gated.

>Fix:
move startup routine of gated to other place.
(I hope gated is activated after starting syslogd because gated makes
many warning messages.)
