Update.
2004-03-30  Ulrich Drepper  <drepper@redhat.com>

	* nis/nss_nis/nis-initgroups.c: Implement getting the information
	from the netid.byname map if the system administrator allows this.

	* grp/initgroups.c (initgroups): Limit the initial allocation to 64
	entries to not allocate too much on systems with really high limits.
