The Solaris CIFS Service is not restricted by MAX_NGROUPS.
We have successfully authenticated AD user accounts that are
members of more than 1000 AD groups.
LDAP is not affected by group membership but note that users
are not authenticated by LDAP when using SMB/CIFS.

Hi,
Basically what the tite says, does the CIFS service have the limitation of 32 groups per user?
I noticed that some other people have commented on the limitations when using SAMBA and reported it to sun (not knowning the initial problem) and then found out that it was just the limitation of solaris (following the RFE)
Does CIFS have the same limitation?
Nothing to do with CIFS with this next question, but wondering if you would
know anyway.
Would LDAP authentication be affected by this limitation (local logins, using
active directory domain)?
As what I have read if you are in more then 32 groups, you just cant
authenticate anymore, so that would mean that most of the users in our domain
couldnt logon to the server (if needed) via SSH.
