>Description:
basicly if you use a bunch of pty's (over 128) the perms are not reset in /etc/rc on reboot...  it only does the first 128...

I have not had more than 128...  but I was looking at the /etc/rc file and thought that was strange...

diff is relative to current

	

>How-To-Repeat:

I guess pull the power on a machine with more than 128 users on....  
	

>Fix:
	
apply this patch:
