Is that NT4 server a DC? If so, try if `mkgroup -d' returns the "Domaenenbenutzer" ("Domain Users") group. I just tried `mkgroup -l' on a german NT4 Wkst and I got the group 513: $ mkgroup -l Jeder:S-1-1-0:0: SYSTEM:S-1-5-18:18: Kein:S-1-5-21-2046982008-79955350-526660263-513:513: [...] So it doesn't depend on the NT version. As I already wrote, this group exists always on all NT versions. It's just renamed to "Domain Users" if a system is configured as PDC. For those who are interested. It's a piece of code in mkgroup which always tries to figure out the name of the 513 group when the -l option is given. It's different in each language and isn't returned by the Windows local group enumerator NetLocalGroupEnum(), unfortunately: ================== SNIP ================= if (print_local) { /* * Get `None' group */ len = 256; GetComputerName (name, &len); csid = (PSID) malloc (1024); len = 1024; len2 = 256; LookupAccountName (NULL, name, csid, &len, dom, &len, &use); print_special (print_sids, GetSidIdentifierAuthority (csid), 5, *GetSidSubAuthority (csid, 0), *GetSidSubAuthority (csid, 1), *GetSidSubAuthority (csid, 2), *GetSidSubAuthority (csid, 3), 513, 0, 0, 0); free (csid); } ================== SNAP ================= Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Developer mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Red Hat, Inc. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
