We use and love supergroups here, but I agree - if the default were to have changed, it should have been at the 1.6 release. I know it's a bit early to talk about 1.8, but if anybody is developing a feature release list, supergroups ought to be on it. For what it's worth, our 1.4.X pts servers have run with significant use of supergroups for years without crashing. So at least on Linux, the code seems pretty stable._______________________________________________ OpenAFS-devel mailing list OpenAFS-devel@openafs.org https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-devel
