Hmm..this is interesting. It seems that getent may fail if there are a
large number of users in a domain group.
[root at cartier ~]# getent group "Domain Users"
domain users:x:15000:
All of my domain users are in the Domain Users group...but if I do:
[root at cartier ~]# getent group "Domain Admins"
domain
admins:x:15005:dhopp,rrush,lgrohs,dbagent,backupexec,sriley,administrator
I get a list of the proper users in that group. Obviously displaying a
list of 600+ users in the output under "Domain Users" would really make
the output hard to read but I wonder if that is by design or if that is
a problem...
