Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hiya, somebody told me that the 256 ptys limitation should be fixed in FreeBSD 4.x, but this doesn't seem to be the case, especially not when looking at /usr/src/sys/kern/tty_pty.c ;) Does anybody know if/when this problem will be fixed? Btw, I haven't even figured out how to get 384 ptys by using pty[tuTU], as there are no more minor device numbers after 256. /marty To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
