Discuss it with the shell server admin at your school.

For security's sake, switch to ssh

I did fix it.Haha
In Fedora 5 ,if we want to make it larger and about 80 persons can login together ,we can do like this:
# vi /etc/xinetd.conf

Change this :
instances = 60(chang it to 80)

That's the way it is!
