As a result (I believe) of some changes (described below) when I try to use chgrp in an xterm shell, I get, for example, this:
[53]% chgrp ourusers ugh chgrp: you are not a member of group ourusers But the same command executed within Terminal.app succeeds. The id command returns the same results in both contexts, and indicates that I am a member of that group. I have checked what I can think of to check, with no solution so far. I would appreciate suggestions as to the cause and how to fix it. Thanks -Don Details: One of the remote Linux servers I use was recently converted to authenticate via our institution's Active Directory system. After the change, I started getting warning messages about my gid being unknown. I was told that upon login it looks up the user's GID, and if the gid number is not found in AD, it issues the warning. (for login it was just a warning, but I found it prevented remote file editing using emacs) So, I arranged to have my AD gid number changed to a number that exists in AD. I surmise that it is this change that is causing the above issue. -- Don MacQueen Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory 7000 East Ave., L-627 Livermore, CA 94550 925-423-1062 _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
