PTY allocation request failed on channel 0
 

Hello I am getting that error always users try to connect using ssh

PTY allocation request failed on channel 0

After reboot the machine all works fine for a while, after some minutes, the same error.

I am using: /usr/sbin/sshd

restart the sshd service & check.

I did it a lot of times, it works only when I reboot the machine, but after some minutes, maybe an hour, happens again

When I had this problem I fixed it like this:

mkdir /dev/pts
mount /dev/pts

This usually occurs because /etc/fstab doesnt have the /dev/pts filesystem mounted.

This post shows the options to put in your fstab to fix the issue:
