I recently found myself in "too many groups", as LIBC complains; I found that somehow that if I present in more than in 16 groups ( what is exactly that value of NGROUPS_MAX in sys/syslimits.h), I run into problems. Well, first thing that popped out was to recompile LIBC, and maybe I'll do that (later), but I'm just curious - how come that 16 is a limit? Didn't anyone before run into this "implementation flaw"? Or, maybe, there exists some better solution? -- Sincerely, Dmitry --- www.karasik.eu.org --- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
