Hi.
I'm getting an error on telnetting to one of our servers. After entering username & password the error "/dev/ptmx: Device Busy" is displayed then the session terminates.
We can get in OK on the console/GSP. Any Ideas?
thanks

Shalom,
Perhaps a corrupt or locked psuedo terminal.
insf -e
That should rebuild the devices and everything should be okay.
