Just wondering. I don't have the need |for this *feature* yet :-) and lack the time to try. This won't work. That was the whole point of my article. The only option that takes netgroups for arguments is "access". "rw" expects the names listed there to be actual machine names. It doesn't even try to look them up in the netgroups database. This is what I find very annoying. William LeFebvre Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Northwestern University
