Re: Some domain groups not found by 'mkgroup --domain'


No, these groups are different. They are domain groups, yet there seems to be a
distinction between a "global" domain group and a "local" domain group. These
"local" domain groups do not show up with either 'mkgroup -d' or 'mkgroup -l'.

Sorry, I should have been more specific.
