[Likewise-open-discuss] id: cannot find name for group ID ...

[ParzerPeter]

Hi,

I am using likewise-open-4.0.5 on Kubuntu Hardy. Sometimes the mapping between 
GID and group names fails. The command "group" returns for some groups the 
group name and for some the error message "id: cannot find name for group ID 
1616905275". Another problem is, that the "group" command takes more than 5 
minutes to complete. To get the nummeric GID of the groups a user belongs to 
is fast: "lwiinfo -r username" takes about 0.15 seconds. Getting the groups 
of a user by name with lwiinfo is fast too. The command

for i in `lwiinfo -r username` ; do lwiinfo -s `lwiinfo -G $i` ; done

list all names of the groups of a user with 40 groups in about 4 seconds. Only 
the command "group" (and in the same manner "id") seem to fail.
