I loaded up solaris 9 on a test system that as samba head on it. Solaris 9 has a cool new command called apptrace. I was curious if it would give any new information about why we can not see our Domain Users group information when I run getent group: getent -> libc.so.1:__flsbuf(0xa, 0x22ab8, 0x23a1c) getent -> libc.so.1:getgrent() = 0x0 errno = 34 (Result too large) getent -> libc.so.1:exit(status = 0) Anyway, it looks like libc.so.1 that is whining about Result too large. I hope this helps... David
