Any help appreciated! sounds like you didn't make the ptyXX devices? look in /dev and see what is there.. if there are no pty files, then do a ./MAKEDEV all as root and it should make some.. you can configure the amount in your /usr/src/sys/arch/???/conf/XXX file, and rebuild a kernel - you need the sources installed to do this though. ]ain
