Hi,

I have been trying to working out how to create additional pseudo-
terminal devices in pts. Currently there are 9 device file in 
/dev/pts numbered between 1 - 12. 

I need to ensure that I can have about 40 users attach to the system 
using xterminals. I have tried MAKEDEV but nothing happens. The man 
pages for pts doesn't say how to make any new devices, only that a 
pty are opened when a process opens /dev/ptmx.


Does anyone know who I can create new character files in /dev/pts?

TIA.
Dp.
