Lines: 16 Does anyone know if it's possible to allow a PC-NFS user NFS access from the PC using more than one group ID? I.e. the equivalent of the BSD UNIX /etc/group mechanism. The current implementation of pcnfsd seems to just return the primary GID associated with the user (defined in /etc/passwd) and that is used. We have a need to authorize a PC-NFS user to more than one group! Any hack around this would be much appreciated!
