| 13:17.17 | bilarh | is it valid to have two groups of the same name with the same gid and different users in /etc/group? |
| 13:17.26 | bilarh | nis has a 1024 character line length limit |
| 13:17.45 | bilarh | so we have several groups with different name but same gid |
| 13:17.54 | bilarh | but would it still work if we had the same name as well? |
| 13:18.39 | wethrin | do it differently in NIS |
| 13:18.50 | wethrin | use subgroups |
| 13:19.00 | bilarh | how do you mean? |
| 13:19.52 | wethrin | Well, at least with netgroups (and I think the same would be true of others), you can define a group that contains other groups |
| 13:19.57 | wethrin | so: |
| 13:20.08 | wethrin | group sub1 sub2 sub3 (user,,) |
| 13:20.14 | wethrin | sub1 (user1,,) (user2,,) |
| 13:20.22 | wethrin | sub2 (user3,,) (user4,,) |
| 13:20.34 | bilarh | hmm, but that's not valid /etc/group syntax |
| 13:21.02 | wethrin | Don't use NIS :) |
| 13:21.20 | bilarh | place your head on the pavement for us, please ;) |
| 13:22.44 | wethrin | http://ask.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=00/12/11/2242206&tid=130&tid=4 |
| 13:22.48 | wethrin | Nest groups |
| 13:26.32 | bilarh | wethrin: umm... did you read the article? |
| 13:27.15 | wethrin | yes. After pasting it |
| 13:27.19 | wethrin | (like a good slashdotter) |
| 13:27.20 | bilarh | ;) |
| 13:27.29 | wethrin | looks like you're going to have to do silly things with netgroups |
| 13:27.40 | bilarh | hmm sounds like too much work |
| 13:27.50 | bilarh | and netgroups is for computers, not users |
| 13:28.25 | wethrin | You have users too |
| 13:28.32 | wethrin | but it's not quite the same |
| 13:28.56 | bilarh | oh actually it seems you're right :) |
| 13:29.11 | bilarh | http://dlc.sun.com/osol/docs/content/SYSADV5/anis2-38485.html |
| 13:31.23 | bilarh | anyway, i'm just writing a little script to modify groups for my own amusement, so i'll just bodge a solution in perl that adds a counter if needs be |
