Hahahaha. :)
We should do something with this.
This question posted in list again and again and again...
I think there two possible solutions:
1) setup auto-reply robot which will reply on every message with
   substring "/var/service"
2) move /var/service symlink into some dark, hidden place where nobody
   will find it to ask this question
:)

P.S. Nandakumar, check runit's website, there a lot of documentation which
describe /var/service function.
