samba - Apr 2003 - BUG?? - Samba 2.2.8a Number of Users in a Group Maxproblem(2.2.7a works, however)

Hehe.  Sorry about the caps and did not mean any ill intentions.

10-4 on the roll-up for security.

Running RedHat 8.0

It is odd because if I go over 80 or so users in a group, samba will not
authenticate but if you stay under that number, it works just fine.  Getent
groups/shadow sees the user in the correct group.  Authentication to RH works
fine as well.  I have other LDAP enabled applications that have no problem with
the number of users per group.  Just seems to be something within samba.

Could you send me a level 10 samba debug log of the failed connection?
That would be helpful.
