There is one problem I seem to be facing, and it's conserning max. users in one group, there seems to be, after I've added approx 150 users to the user group, after 150 counts, the group seems to be "full" Is this some default in FreeBSD to allow only max 150 users in one group, or can I configure my system to allow more users, when I started to adduser to my system, I made new group, in /etc/group ,, the line for that group is: user:*:40: I made this group manually, just edited /etc/group and added the group with this group id, as I started to adduser,, I found out that users in this group have no access to superuser, cannot use "su" Is there anyone who has some info on the group, is there any way for me to allow group to register more than 150 max users, without having to add new group for each 150 user count ?? Thanks in advance,, Med kvedju Sincerely -------------------------------------------------- Gestur A.
