CRPTY(8)                        Domain/OS BSD                         CRPTY(8)



NAME
     crpty - create pseudo tty device entries

SYNOPSIS
     /etc/crpty count

DESCRIPTION
     crpty creates the pairs of device entries that are used by the pseudo
     terminal driver; see pty(4).  crpty creates device pairs /dev/ptyp[0-f]
     and /dev/ttyp[0-f].  crpty takes the argument count, which is the number
     of pairs of pty entries to create.  The maximum number of pairs allowed
     is 16.

     The number of psuedo-terminal device pairs created controls the number of
     simultaneous incoming rlogin and telnet processes to an individual node.

EXAMPLE
     crpty 2

     creates /dev/ptyp0, /dev/ttyp0, and /dev/ptyp1, /dev/ttyp1.
