If I have a line in the inittab that looks like this:
foo:2:respawn:/bin/su someuser -c "some command"
then the uid and gid get set properly, but the supplementary group list
never gets picked up. This is on 3.2v4.2.
In other contexts, su seems to do the Right Thing.
What gives?

1. effective supplemental group and allowed supplemental group
I am trying to expand the number of effective supplemental groups. I have
increased NGROUP to the level (32) which is more than addequate to include
the number of groups I need to be effective at one time.
I have created the .suppgroups file in the correct home directory for the
account I am working on and included in it all the groups that the account
should have effective membership in. I have configured this .suppgroups
file
with all the groups the user should have and with all but the first eight
that show
up in response to `id`.
Basically, I'm trying to get everything that responds to `sg -t` to show up
as
`sg` (effective vs allowed).
I've confirmed that user is a member of each group that I want to be
effective.
Synopsis: How do I get all my allowed groups to be effective groups?
This is SCO OpenServer 5.0.5.
Thanks
2. Ray tracer with GUI please?
4. The Well-Tempered Unix Application
5. restrict use of 'su' or 'su -'
6. Adding Xircom Parallel after installation?
7. su : bad supplemental group list
8. MCA Port
10. change group 0's name from 'root' to 'staff'
11. What is the difference between 'login: root' and 'su -' ?
12. MD5 disabled the 'su' and 'logon' command
