I am using samba 3.07 with winbind in AD. I have some long group names (30 char or more, includes spaces). And I noticed users get access denied for those groups. Is there a limit on group name length? Thanks. --Sharif -- Sharif Islam http://www.sharifislam.com Research Programmer Library Systems Office 217-244-4688
