Increase the PTY count on FreeBSD

Out of pty's - news.gw.com

I looked for this a while ago, but couldn't find it right away. For some reason, it was easier this time. I wanted to up the number of ptys availlable on a FreeBSD system.

Turns out, all you need to do is:
/dev/MAKEDEV pty1
and you get another set. (use pty2 for the next, pty3, pty4, and so on)
