If this were set to "16" for example, you could only have 16 virtual terminals at a time, which are what remote logins use. This would have no effect on the console. This would require a re-compile of the kernel. If you're looking to limit logins on a per user/class basis, you may want to take a look at /etc/login.conf I'm not sure this is the solution you're looking for, but I hope it helps. -Chris > -----Original Message----- > From: danville@hotmail.com [SMTP:danville@hotmail.com] > Sent: Thursday, October 14, 1999 12:49 PM > To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG > Subject: login sessions > > Hi , > We are trying to limit the amount of login sessions on our FreeBsd OS. > > How can we do this. > > i think in solaris we couls use the /etc/system and change the kernel > setting . if this is correct what is the equivalent file for this th > FreeBSD > > > Thanks > Danny > > ______________________________________________________ > Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
