>I found some news about that problem at

><http://radu.rendec.ines.ro/howto/32groups.html> and
><http://lists.uugrn.org/uugrn/02/05/6936.html>

>which tells me to change the value of NGROUPS and NGROUPS_MAX in
>/usr/src/linux/include/linux/limits.h
>and /usr/src/linux/include/asm/param.h , recompile the kernel and glibc ,
>reboot and it should work .
>I did this on a RedHat 7.3 system with samba 2.2.3a but it is still not
>working .

>Does anybody has an idea or experience with that ?

>Thx Frank
