Hi,

not sure what what authorization mechanism fhgfs uses, is currently
subject to the 16 groups limitation we know from NFS auth_sys?

If yes, can we use this to work around the issue?

FhGFS does not use the RPC protocol as given by RFC5531, so FhGFS is not
at all affected by this problem.

Cheers,
