I've just found out (the hard way) that NFS only supports the first 8 group of groups. Now (short of making a mess of the group file) I'm stuck with doing `newgrp' to get access to files on remote machines. This really p*sses me off. It seems that everytime I hear something about NFS it's bad news: either some security problems, bugs or just some stupid limitation. It's almost as bad as Yellow Pages! (which also came from the people that brought us NFS). I don't suppose that HP/the rest of the world are going to come up with some better protocol/network environment. vic -- Victor Gavin Zengrange Limited vic@zen.co.uk Greenfield Road ..!mcvax!ukc!zen.co.uk!vic Leeds England +44 532 489048 LS9 8DB
