Yep that's what I came up with after looking though the code thanks
for the link though, always good to get confirmation that I didn't
miss something.

You can increase the maximum amount of PTYs by editing a lot of source
files on your system. There is some good news: in -CURRENT we switched
to Unix98-style PTYs (/dev/pts/%u). Right now the maximum amount of PTYs
is limited to 1000 (0

I've noticed lots of apps already misbehave because of the pty(4) ->
pts(4) migration. I guess using a new naming scheme would totally break

I guess that would break a lot of existing libraries. For example: older
RELENG_7/CURRENT libcs might still use TIOCGPTN. This ioctl just returns
a nu

I knew his sounded very familiar, seems I asked the same
question back in 2007 for 5.4 just it was capped at 256:
http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/htdig/freebsd-hackers/2007-October/021852.html
I'm sure I also remember saying this limit had been removed in 7.x
but looking in the source for pqrsPQ
How can I increase the maximum number or ptys available on FreeBSD 7.0?
It seems that currently the machine is maxing out at 512 but there is
still loads of capacity left on the machine.
Ideally would like to double at least the number of ttys available,
any help would be most appreciated.
