what happened to /dev/pts/0 ?

haye

Hi Guys,

Normally when I logged in via ssh, the tty would be

/dev/pts/0

But lately, it has always been

/dev/pts/1

Is someone logged in and using pts/0 ?

The last time this happened (a few months ago), I noticed that the node admin is logged in, i.e. I can see the 'vzctl' command when issuing the 'ps ax'.

But now, ps ax does not show the vzctl process.

I have another virtuoso based VPS, and the tty is pts/0

Both VPS are running cpanel.

Any ideas on what could have happened?

Thanks!

What does who say?

When you answer the question what is /dev/pts in linux you will know what happened. And to confirm, just ask provider.

Must be another process using the terminal

I'd first check what process is using it: fuser /dev/pts/0
