i think this may be a system limit, perhaps part of libc ..i have run into this limit in the past, if you need this many groups perhaps you should look into running the ACL edition of ext2 to get more flexibility in access rights. glibc 2.2.x may solve this problem, but i'd be suprised if it did ... ACLs is probably a better option though: http://acl.bestbits.at/ its pretty specific about what kernels you can use it with. i have only tested it briefly.. nate
