You probably just want to use getgroups(2) (assuming that your supplementary groups have been set up already, probably by initgroups(3) or moral equivalent.) If you are writing the part that sets the supplementary group list and you for some reason do not want to use initgroups(3), then you can either use getgrouplist, which is not available on all systems, or you'll need to cycle through all groups with getgrent(3) to find the ones that the user in question is a member of. -- Ed Schmollinger - schmolli@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
