not in rhel3. is fixed for rhel4.
Can someone help on this. My understanding that the max number of groups
was 16, and that the restraint was a 4 bit field.
Certainly under NIS this is the case. I have look in the man page for
group and cannot see anything about 32 being a max size.
Can someone point to the 32 constraint on RH3, and the expansion beyond
this for RH4. Pointers to this in documentation would be useful.
Tks,
-Bob
