Brian,

It would be easier yes, but on the Windows' side of things, it does not have
access to /etc/passwd or /etc/group,
so how can I use the single login script to determine what group a user is
in?  That's why I wrote the C program for, which will
search for the given username etc...  Windows doesn't have this, I can port
it to Win32 but I'd rather not as I'd then need to
copy the /etc/group and /etc/passwd files.  Each user having their own
script is a problem, we have 1500+ users and we don't have
time to setup 1500+ login scripts, we thought it would be easy to implement
group-based logins.

Seems that's not the case and never was, anyone out there with any other
suggestions as to enable the use of group logins?

Thanks
