There isn't one, AFAIK, because what is actually used is the inverse of
that mapping.

Why do you want to?

Not, you _might_ get away with saying this:


        group:x:100:user1,user2,user3,......,user100
        group:x:100:user101,user102,user103,...

but I would make NO guarentees about how the various tools might treat that -
it's neither normal nor supported.

Maybe you can tell us what your real problem is - it sounds like you're
asking how to do X because you believe X is how to fix Y. Tell us what
Y is - there may be a better way.
