I seem to recall that by default, only 4 ptys are allocated in the default kernel. Put that into your config file and recompile : pseudo-device pty 16 Reboot and create more pty device files in your /dev/ directory : cd /dev MAKEDEV pty0 to create the first 16 ptys (/dev/ptyp*) MAKEDEV pty1 to create the next 16 ones (/dev/ptyq*) and so on. >| Written with LA Times for OS/2 | Not reasonnable at all, you know ! :-) -- Ollivier ROBERT Ollivier.Robert@keltia.frmug.fr.net A FreeBSD & PERL addict...
