    Telnet login maximum

    Hi,

    On an OpenSUSE 10.3 machine, I am only able to get 30 people logged in
    using telnet.

    The user insists on using telnet as their login client software cannot
    use ssh.

    How can I increase the number of telnet logins allowed?

    Is it a number of processes parameter or something more refined?

    I've looked into pty maximums and that is set at 4096, so that's not
    it.

    Please help if you can.

    Many thanks,

    Chaz.

    edit your xinetd.conf

    increase cps = amount , max_load = amount , instances = UNLIMITED

    save and restart your service
