[PLUG] max number of groups?

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hello all,
I recently ran into a very bizzare issue. We are talking about a linux
server, which authenticates via NIS, automounts a directory via nfs.
We have user A that is a member of several groups, one of which is the one
that owns the automounted directory (let's call it /usr/dir).
Changing the ownership of /usr/dir to A will give A access.
Changing the groupship of /usr/dir to a group A is a member of AND is in
the the group is among the first 15 of A's groups will give A access.
Changing the groupship to /usr/dir to a group A is a member of AND is not
in the first 15 of A's groups will not give A access to/ /usr/dir.
I looked up google for the last 30 minutes and couldn't find any
limitation to 15 groups or anything similar.
Do any of you know of any such limitation, and if so, where is it
(kernel,nis,nfs) ?
Thanks,
