I am trying to move my /var file system to /usr/var to free up space
in the root directory. When I try to do this I get the message that
/var/run/log and /var/run/ndc cannot be copied.
I looked and saw that the permssions were:

srw-rw-rw- for log
srw------- for ndc

I am guessing that the s in the directory (1st) slot is keeping me
from copying these files. I tried to change the permissions, but was
unsuccessful. How can I copy these files/directories to /usr/var/un so
I can link /var to /usr/var???

Thanks,

J
