Description
On login, Finder complains that "An item in the Startup Items folder ("/Library/StartupItems/OpenSSH") does not have the proper security settings." It gives the option to "Decide Later", "Disable" or "Fix". (See screenshot.)
Hrm, can't figure out how to attach a file, will try on the next screen.

This has to do with the directory being a symlink I believe.

what OS X version, and what openssh version is this?
OS X 10.4.2 openssh 4.2_0
And yes, /Library/StartupItems is a symlink.

Hi Michael,
Had the same problem with OSX 10.4.3 and OpenSSH 4.2_0. I went to a terminal and changed directory to /Library/StartupItems/OpenSSH and did 'sudo chmod 777 OpenSSH'
It was initially set at 755 and I tried 775 but the complaint came back. Not sure whether it's a good idea to give OpenSSH all_world read/write/execute access so I set it back to 755 and will wait for Charlie's comment?

Woops. Forgot to say that changing to chmod 777 fixed the error message.

Sorry i've let this stagnate because I couldn't replicate it!
I'll try again today.

I think for those on 10.4 they can wait for dports 1.2 and everything will fix itself .. by migrating to launchd.
