WE have a pentium 90 with 32 megs O ram running FreeBSD 2.1.0.  :-)

Awhile back we recomplied the kernel (probally the wrong way).  We went 
from 16 ttys to about 32 ttys.When we have "alot" of users on at once 
(like over 14)  But we get error messages on console 
like  "kernel name"  proc table full.  (this repeates about 100 gazillion 
times)  then the system refuses any more logins  :-(

We looked in the sysconfig file in th etc dir and it says nothing about 
MAXUSERS or other things we read about in our Unix books.

How can we alot more table space for MANY USERS LOGGED in at ONCE.

ANy info for some newbies would be helpful.  THANKS!!

PS. is there a good web page ftp site I can get info like step by step 
kernel compiling ect.    We have been using your FReeBSD for oour server 
for our school system.  we have over 900 accounts and everyone is very 
happy!!
