Hi questions list, I have a set of users in a NIS/YP database who may login on multiple machines. Now for some reason, on one of those machines (5.3-RELEASE-p6), any user who belongs to more groups than 4 on the NIS/YP server cannot login any more. If I'm using su as root to become this user I get: su: setusercontext: Invalid argument This is only the case on this one 5.3-R-p6 machine. All machines have kern.ngroups set to 16. While I'm certain I have not changed a lot from the default install, is there any place other than the kern.ngroups sysctl variable that I may have changed by accident to decrease the max groups per user? I could also provide output from truss down to: setgroups(0x11,0xbfbfe660) ERR#22 'Invalid argument' Thanks, -- br. j.
