This is probably what you're referring to: 

(1023 sid's) http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;322970
& this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/280830/ (much lower number)

IIRC, 2003 domains can handle more, but I think ~Eric was the one that
posted something about that.  Maybe he or Dean will chime in?

However, I can't think it would be very manageable to have users in that
many groups in most organizations.  Even with distribution groups, local
groups, etc.  It would seem to me that being a part of that many groups
would set off all kinds of security and management issues as well as
performance issues for the user.

Subject: [ActiveDir] 1000 groups

Hi All:

Can an AD user be a member of more that 1000 groups?  Someone told me that
1000 was an AD limitation.   Is that true?

Thanks,

--Brian
