Hello all!
My friend is sysdamin and he maintains his school Unix-box
(Redhat 3.0.3) and he has following problem:
His school unix machine allows only 64 telnet connections.
When 65th user tries to login his connection is refused.
He knows that latest kernels support some kind of PTY-mode
which increases simultaneous telnet connections up to 256
but he told me that he haven't found any telnet daemon
which would work with it.He also told me that default
telnet daemon doesn't work with this PTY-scheme--->
well atleast he claims! :)
Sound weird? Well this is truly weird question....
