Hm,
I was sure that someone else had had this problem, but searching through
the archives, didn't give me anything.
In /usr/src/sys/conf/GENERIC, there is a line:
# grep -i PTY /usr/src/sys/conf/GENERIC
pseudo-device pty 64 # pseudo-terminals
#
But there is no such line in the arch specific one:
# grep -i PTY /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/conf/GENERIC
#
There is a "maxusers" which perhaps influences the number of PTY's? I have
already set this at 64. Will increasing this help me any?
Hope someone can help,
Tor
