Googling around it would appear that it's possible to redirect /dev/console to a pty, so you might try that. systemd provides the "tty" option to DefaultStandardError but doesn't seem to offer the configuration to actually set which tty it goes to. I'll ping systemd-devel to see if that is a documentation or design oversight, because that would help tremendously. > >> You can redirect output to an arbitrary tty but >> only on a per-unit basis.
