I'm running out of PTYs on my authpf firewall. Simply, more than 992 (max pty limit) users are trying to log in simultaneously.
In theory I could disable (in authpf.c) checking whether or not session has been successfully allocated a pty, and force clients not to allocate a pty when connecting. But I suppose it was made for a reason -- could some kind soul please tell me what side-effects disabling this would have ? Is it at all possible to have more than 992 simultaneous authpf users ? -- Janusz Gumkowski http://www.am.torun.pl/~ja
