Hi, i'm jonathan and i'm running a freebsd 4.8 box. i wish to increase the value of NGROUPS_MAX into = /usr/src/sys/sys/syslimits.h. I'd like to know how increasing that number to permit users from = /etc/passwd to be member of more than 16 groups will affect system = performances.=20 What will be an acceptable value for NGROUPS_MAX? I know this number is set to 32 in suse linux.... I know that ACL is a better way but i wont use it until it's stable = under 5.x freebsd and that 5.x is recomended for production issues. About how doing that change... Is it just about changing the value and reboot the machine or there is = some recompilation matter linked to that change? Any help will be greatly appreciated! I'm new to this list... everybody keep on that good work ;)
