Hi all,

According to the following post:
[http://unix.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/FreeBSD/current/2005-05/1086.html]

Robert Watson has said there was work in the pipeline to increase NGROUPS_MAX to
hundreds and even thousands of groups.

Does anyone know if this work got done ? Will be included in 7.0-R ?

Robert ?

Lots of us are hitting the maximum group limit of 16 and this is a painful
experience when authenticating FreeBSD against AD when users are in 30-60 groups
:(
