Hi List,
I have installed Solaris 8 on a sparc, I am getting too many connections error when I open more then two terminals. Which parameter needs to be bumped up to increase the number of connections?.
Please let me know.
Thanks in advance
 
You can immediatly change the value of the pt_cnt parameter using adb.

On the command line issue the following commands as root:
adb -kw /dev/ksyms /dev/mem
pt_cnt/X (will display current)
pt_cnt/W 80 (or any other value)
pt_cnt/X (will display the new value)
$q (to exit adb)
This will take effect immediatly until the next reboot.

If you want to make the changes active after the next reboot, you have to
edit the /etc/system and add the following line:

set pt_cnt=128 ( or any other deciaml value)
then reboot.
