Second, uuidd is not a systemd component. So, you won't find a service file. You will find a /etc/init.d/uuidd file. Third, to work around the problem add the following to the beginning of the init script. mkdir /var/run/uuidd chown uuidd:uuidd /var/run/uuidd -- Never be afraid to laugh at yourself, after all, you could be missing out on the joke of the century. -- Dame Edna Everage -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
