Message-Id: <20040729193106.43d4c515.skraw@ithnet.com> Organization: ith Kommunikationstechnik GmbH X-Mailer: Sylpheed version 0.9.12 (GTK+ 1.2.10; i686-pc-linux-gnu) Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hello, is there a simple way in either 2.4 or 2.6 to get a lot more than 32 groups per uid? Imagine a situation with lots of groups (lets assume 5000-10000). It is obvious that in such a large environment users are commonly members of more than 32 groups. How can I solve that? I'd say it should even be possible to be member of all available groups (in other words completely drop this limit). Regards, Stephan
