Hello, Louis ? I tried the solution you provided, but result is the same. So, I gave up and did without getent. Now, I use chgrp by gid and everything is ok. When I set the group from AD by gid, then I see in MC the name of the group, because users/groups are not in the list of all users/groups but when requested by one they are resolved (as I wrote getent passwd administrator worked). ? So, the problem is closed ? I can?t spend more time on it. ? -- Best regards, Alex Orlov
