All,
Thanks to all for your responses. The information provided by Compaq
support was that the 'MAKEDEV std' would create the devices to the value of
maxusers. After the responses and reading the MAKEDEV script (thanks Oisin
for pointing that out!), I discovered it would only create the first 32
devices (and thanks Dr. Blinn for verifying this). I also learned from
reading the MAKEDEV script that it will stop creating pty's at 816
regardless of the number of tty's you require. I'm currently running with
1323 tty's and 816 pty's so it must not be a problem. I'll figure out the
why's later.
The most important point brought to my attention was to *read* the MAKEDEV
script. Point well taken.
Regards,
Dennis S.
