I think that's 64K with current versions of Linux.

But so far I'm doubtful that will work. Well, AFS doesn't use groups in the same way that NFS does and if you use AFS, you won't have this problem. AFS accounts can be in as many groups as you want (well, practically speaking). But that would mean moving your files from NFS to AFS and using AFS's different ACL scheme. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> ________________________________________________ Kerberos mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kerberos
