Creating more tty's in a jail


Hello.

I'm just setting up a jail for several bouncers.
I wish to let the users run irssi together with screen inside the jail.

So far i have set up the jail and it's working nicely except for one thing. When i do this.

Code:
screen -U -S bouncer
screen then tells me there's no ttys left. Does anyone know how i can create ttys inside this jail?

More information:

I'm running: Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04
I followed this tutorial: http://fluxbox-wiki.org/index.php?ti...wto_jail_irssi

and in addition i have done this outside the jail with root.

Code:
mount -t devpts devpts /chroot/jail/dev/pts
mount -t proc proc /chroot/jail/proc
Any help would be greatly appreciated since i'm struggling to find information on how to do this that i can understand.

This is probably a ulimit problem. do a ulimit -a from inside the jail; you might see that you can't create (enough) new files.
