I checked the archives for this question but the solution did not
worked for me.
When a non-priv user tries to open a Decterm via Session Manager
(application menu) the message on the console reads there are no
available ptys. The decterm windows appears on the screens and quickly
disappears. I did a MAKEDEV on pty2, pty3, and pty4 but it did not
solve the problem. Could this be a privilege problem because as root I
am able to open as many decterms I want through session manager.
This occured after I re-installed version 3.2 (the factory version was
on the machine), changed the disk partition table, and copied /usr
partition back to disk.
Particulars - DEC 3000/300 running version 3.2 DEC UNIX; RZ26L disk,
UFS file system.
I will summarize and thanks in advance for your help.
