Are you sure
1) That you can use netgroup notation when you're (presumably) not
using nis/nisplus/ldap?
2) That you can nest a netgroup in a group? I've only seen/used
netgroups used in "/etc/group" on a separate line, eg "+@netusers",
to include the "netusers" netgroup using "nss_compat".
It turn off the pol kit prompt
Are you that it's not something else that's "turning off" polkit?
I checked the "group(5)" man pages on my NetBSD and OpenBSD systems,
on my Linux laptop, and in Solaris 8 man-page PDF. The first three
describe the fourth field as a list of members and the members are
users. Solaris even calls the fourth field "user-list". None of them
even imply that a group name can be added to the list, with or without
prepending "@".
I created a group "todd", added myself to it, added "@todd" to the
"root" group in "/etc/{group,gshadow}" (I couldn't find an executable
that would allow me to add a group to a group), and ran "grpck -r":
# grpck -r
group root: no user @todd
delete member '@todd'? No
shadow group root: no user @todd
delete member '@todd'? No
grpck: no changes
root rebekah /root
#
"grpck" expects usernames as group members.
Hi Tom,
The plot thickens! :-)
Taking in and taking out @users was repeatable.
And I used the universal configuration tool, know as "vi".
But what I have noticed was in the man page, they state
that the users list is comma separated. I used a colon.
Try it with vi and a colon
Also, it would help if you showed me your line in /etc/groups
