Instead, it prevents a fresh control socket from being created the next time user ppp is launched at startup. >How-To-Repeat: Power failure, etc... >Fix: The script that launches syslogd deletes /var/run/log immediately beforehand. The same thing ought to be done with user ppp control sockets. An additional variable is added to rc.conf, pppctl_socket, which will be set to "" by default (or maybe "/var/run/internet"). The patches in rc.network and ppp-user check for the presence of the socket and delete it.
