We are running wu-ftpd 2.4 on some FreeBSD boxes here and we keep getting 
this message whenever someone logs into the ftp server:

ftpd[435]: open of pid file failed: No such file or directory

Often followed by:

last message repeated 4 times (the number varies)

It always appears regardless if the session is anonymous or not.  I 
created /usr/anon/var/run in case it is looking there and no go.  Regular 
ftpd doesn't give this error.

How can we satisfy wu-ftpd and get rid of this error?    Or at least, how 
can I find out where it wants to put the pid file?  :)

Thanks for any help you can provide.
