By default, there are no pty /dev entries in AIX as shipped. The devices
command can be used to add them individually. It is straightforward to use
tee to capture the appropriate input to devices and then use that as standard
input to devices to add a bunch of pty's. I posted an example a while back and
could repost if there is enought interest.
