[solved] /var/run/daemons empty

Hey,

i just performed an update and now the active daemons are no longer shown in /var/run/daemons. Is anyone else experiencing this? Or is this intended?

Regards,
demian

They are in /run/daemons now. Also, note the addition of /sbin/rc in initscripts 2011.04.1-2 - check out the output of "rc list".
