[OpenAFS-devel] setgroups() fails to change pag under linux 2.6

[chas williams - CONTRACTOR]

the openafs 1.5 development branch now has code to do such a thing.
it uses the session keyring to carry a pag key across the process
boundary.  we have considered writing a kernel module to just implement
a "pag api" that would be generic for use by others.
