Subject: Does Kernel 2.6.6 support more than 32 groups?
Date: Wed, 16 Jun 2004 14:41:04 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040616214104.34614.qmail@web60908.mail.yahoo.com> (raw)

We need a Linux kernel to support more than 32 groups.
The 2.6.6 kernel source file include/linux/limits.h
contains the line:

define NGROUPS_MAX    65536  /* supplemental group   
IDs are available*/

I also changed 

#define NGROUPS_SMALL  32 

to 

#define NGROUPS_SMALL   256

in include/linux/sched.h file.
 
But when I compiled it on Redhat Enterprise Linux 3.0
(with glibc-2.3.2-95.20) it still gives 32 group
limitation. What else do I need to change? Do I need
to modify glibc? If so how?

I'd appreciate your help.

Brian
