The traditional workaround for the 1024 bytes limit is to have multiple lines for the same group, for example: group1:x:100:user1,user2,user3 group1:x:100:user4,user5,user6 Note that everything except the list of the users is the same on all the lines. It might work for you too. -SB _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
