You were right, the problem does not exist with users who are in less than 17 groups; I double-checked it with a completely new user account.
Thank you very much for your help. So this is not a bug after all, but a design limitation. Maybe this should be mentioned in a manpage. I've been using NFS for years and never encountered this limitation before. I don't know wether I will be setting up GSSAPI, since that is to my knowledge dependent on Kerberos and I have never heard anything but complaints about that from anyone. I'll probably just try to get rid of some of those groups. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/829312 Title: NFS group mapping faulty To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nfs-utils/+bug/829312/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
