If there are no other shell users then the suggestion that there are to few tty's seems a bit dubious. Could be they've been locked up somehow. If one issues commands as 'ssh -l user host command', does the tty get used at all? If not, then it could be useful. I guess rsh could be used similarly and might be installed?
