There is an option in the kernel config named "pty" and it's the number of virtual terminals that are available. 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
