I have a handful of users who can't 'newgrp' to one specific group from Solaris 9 and 10 nodes and always get this prompt:
newgrp: Password:
We never get prompted by 20+ other groups and this group never prompts for a password from Red Hat Linux nodes. Authentication comes from AD and there's password set there.
Thanks for the input. We know that newgrp only works for the first 16 groups which are output by the groups command (sans this one problem group). The GID is in fact over 60000, but we have working groups in the 6-figure range above this group.
This problem group has a huge number of members. Can someone point me to a doc which covers the max members that Solaris can handle in a group? As I mentioned, Red Hat is fine with this group. THX
