Max 250 telnet sessions

[Rita Li]

I have an old server running an application with all my users accessing the application via telnet sessions. The old server is running 11.0 where the kernel is set with

maxusers - 250
npty - 512
nstrpty - 512
nstrtel - 512

ls /dev/pty|wc -w returns 512
ls /dev/ptym|wc -w returns 513

Now I have a new server that I need to carry the application from the old server to the new server however the new server is running 11.23

uname -a
HP-UX bdcimfg1 B.11.23 U ia64 0568256958 unlimited-user license

Now I have the new server kernel settings changed & rebooted so it look like this:-

npty - 512
nstrpty - 512
nstrtel - 512

Also

ls /dev/pty|wc -w returns 512
ls /dev/ptym|wc -w returns 513

But I can't find the 'maxuser' from sam -> kernel configuration -> Turnables anymore

How can I know my new server really can allow for max 250 telnet sessions? (from the default 60)

Thanks in advance for any help

Hi Rita,

Also, you can use kctune to set values in 11.23

Following the link to note that 11.23 no more with the 'maxusers' parameter anymore & in fact need to adjust on the 'nclist', 'nfile', 'ninode' instead

Tested to find it works all okay & thanks for all the input
