Ouch! I found a comment in tty_pty.c that it doesn't deallocate pty's anymore. Not a single destroy_dev() is called by tty_pty.c. This means the FreeBSD kernel leaks a lot of cdev's and thus ucred's and my patch is working around another bug. Yours, -- Ed Schouten <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> WWW: http://g-rave.nl/
