Did you also create the new ptys or did you just enable them in the kernel? To create them do the following: cd /dev sh ./MAKEDEV pty0 sh ./MAKEDEV pty1 sh ./MAKEDEV pty2 sh ./MAKEDEV pty3 sh ./MAKEDEV pty4 sh ./MAKEDEV pty5 sh ./MAKEDEV pty6 sh ./MAKEDEV pty7 After that you should have 256 ptys available. (Each of those invocations create 32 ptys in /dev) -- <Insert your favourite quote here.> Erik Trulsson ertr1013@student.uu.se To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
