Re: keys file disapearing

Take a look at /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit around line 644.  Wipes out much of
/var/run on reboot.  /var/run is normally considered to be volatile.  If
the keys file can be relocated by configure option to some place not
volatile (like /etc), much better.  Otherwise you'll need to change the
init script.
