I noticed the above error independently. I logged in as root and changed to another user. I that case /dev/stderr is owned by root and hence not readable. The error above was output when I tried `service sshd status` Seems that it's due to: http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=initscripts.git;a=commitdiff;h=09bfb503 The attached may fix it up. cheers, Pádraig.
