this is the different between a distribution group and a
security group from what I understand.  The behavior is
by design.


are you sure? That means if I add read permissions (via ACL) to a directory for group "distgroup" then the user "robert" still has no access rights. Although he is member of "secgroup" which is a member of "distgroup". This behaviour is intentionally "by design"? What are "distribution groups" then good for?
