Just run migrate_group.pl script on /etc/group on a representative machine, that'll produce an LDIF you can import into your FDS. Verify that the dn is correct and load it in. It puts all posix groups into an ou=Groups, which I found convenient. From the UI, you can see all your posix groups grouped together under Groups. If you are adding groups from the console, remember to highlight the Groups OU, right click, add new, "other" posix group. I also change the index to the cn, instead of gid, that makes it easier to read. You just have to decide whether you want to continue with the Linux standard where every user is a member of his own group. As the number of users grows, that becomes a PITA. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
