To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org 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 __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Address AutoComplete - You start. We finish. http://promotions.yahoo.com/new_mail
