As per FAQ, http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/admin.html, I tried to increase the number of ptys: "10.19.1 Build and install a new kernel with the line in the configuration file: device pty N where N is the number of requested pseudoterminals." I tried to recompile the kernel. I have modified the GENERIC as follows: device pty 64 # Pseudo-ttys (telnet etc) This results a compilation error: config: /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC:268: syntax error *** Error code 1 Kind Regards Unga
