Oh, I can figure out what I need to do, that's not the problem. I've been using UNIX in various forms for 19 years (ouch!! :)).

It's especially not trivial because of the 16 group limit: we already have a lot of users who are creeping up on that limit just for work purposes: adding a lot of extra groups for sysadmin purposes isn't going to make matters any better :-/. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
