On Solaris at least, the getent command doesn't support netgroup. According to the man page, it supports any of: passwd, group, hosts, ipnodes, services, protocols, ethers, project, networks, netmasks Vipul Ramani wrote: > Hi all, > > I am trying to configure FDS as directory server and clients are sun > solaris 10 boxes..

So, > Netgroup does not work in solaris 10 ???? :( > Solaris 10 doesn't have any specific netgroup problems that I'm aware of, and it has not dropped support for netgroup. But, as in previous Solaris releases, the getent command doesn't talk to the netgroup database. You can still use them, you just can't ask the system about them with getent.
