Hi all,
I am trying to add some pseudo-ttys to the system(2.1.6) and keep
getting the following error when issuing makedev:
cd /dev <<< Change to /dev
./MAKEDEV pty128 <<< create 128 pty/tyy's
bad unit for pty in: pty128 <<< following error results
I have tried 16,32, 64 and 96 same error results.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks... Allen
