Hi all
Thanks for ur suggestions.
actually i am using solaris2.5 un a sunultra1 sparc server.
wht i found that a number of terminals had been opened in the console itself.

i just closed all those terminals and now from remote machine i can telnet and open new terminals.
so what Livinfree is telling seems true.
i also checked the pt_chmod and the permission is as follows
---s--x--x 1 root bin 4388 Oct 6 1998 pt_chmod

Any other ideas..on the kernel parameters that restricts no of terminals.
Thanks and regards

Praful

securetty

SECURETTY(5)						     Linux Programmer's Manual						      SECURETTY(5)

NAME

       securetty - file which lists terminals from which root can log in

DESCRIPTION

       The file /etc/securetty contains the names of terminals (one per line, without leading /dev/) which are considered secure for the transmis-
       sion of certain authentication tokens.

       It is used by (some versions of) login(1) to restrict the terminals on which root is allowed to login.  See login.defs(5) if  you  use  the
       shadow suite.

       On  PAM	enabled  systems,  it  is  used  for  the  same purpose by pam_securetty(8) to restrict the terminals on which empty passwords are
       accepted.

FILES

       /etc/securetty

SEE ALSO

       login(1), login.defs(5), pam_securetty(8)
