It=B4s is used by a legacy radius software to authenticate the users. =09The poblem is that beyond some position in the group list the system doesn=B4t show the user in that group. i.e: =09The user "nonono" is listed in one of those groups, but the comand: id nonono doesn=B4t show that group. Another user at the begining of the group is ok. - Marcelo Souza On Thu, 11 Aug 2005, Jason Morgan wrote: |On Thu, Aug 11, 2005 at 01:14:28PM -0300, scuba@centroin.com.br wrote: |> Hi all, |> |> =09I'm in troble here. |> =09Is there any limit to the size o each group in /etc/groups. |> =09I'm moving from a BSDI machine where I used to authenticate some |> services based on groups, but Freebsd 5.4 seem to be limiting it to |> arround 1300 characters. |> =09Sorry if it's a known issue but it's urgent. |> |Are some of your users in many different groups?
