Hello cygwinites!

In my /var/log/messages file (from syslogd), I find the following message:

init : open(/dev/console): Permission denied

this message appears whenever init is started or stopped.

I've searched and searched but find no mention of it in the newsgroups.

Any insight will be much appreciated!

-Chris
