I don't use gated here so I can't speek to this one.  Don't you
need gated running before you can issue gdc control commands?

I am aware of this and am working on fixing it.  The /etc/rc files
basically got into a real mess a few weeks back and I am just now
getting the last few wrinkles out of them.

> 	Can somebody propose any solution for this ?

Move this line:
(cd /var/run && { rm -rf -- *; cp /dev/null utmp; chmod 644 utmp; })
to be right after:
mount -a -t nonfs

and it should fix the problem for you, unless /var happens to be
NFS mounted.

See above..
