Greetings list
I have searched the mail archives for "pty limit" but
didn't find anything....also a little pushed for time
hence my lack of RTFM or further searching
I'm running the latest Cygwin on a windows XP lenovo
T60 laptop. I elected to install "everything" and
added
pexpect (expect for python). I have a ksh shell that
calls my pexpect script with an IP address and throws
it into the background. Ideally I'd like to launch
2000 procs, but am hitting a "pty limit" of 100.
I experience the same pty limit if I use normal
expect, so I assume it's a cygwin "ulimit" of sorts.
How do I increase the default pty limit of 100 to
3000?
Thanks in advance!
