Just so everyone knows, I’m changing NGROUPS_MAX on banstyle.nuxx.net to 64 shortly, which will require rebooting the box. Everything should come back up okay after this.
This change is being made so that a user can be a member of more than 15 groups, which will allow me to add far more local web hosting users under the lighttpd / PHP privilege separation model which I prefer. Due to some incoming sites this is needed in order to best host them. As far as I can currently tell this will only break NFS, which I don’t use.
I’ll update this post once the reboot is complete.
UPDATE: Well, that seemed to have gone as expected. Per usual, please let me know about any problems you are having with the server.
