Maybe. Have to see when we can implement it though. It could probably leverage the min/max_gid setting.

Actually that was a great hint.

Setting last_valid_gid = 100 in the config and restarting helped. Having a filter-list instead of fixed upper/lower bounds would be more flexible. I guess though that in reality most systems/setups have ranges for different kinds of groups, so that the first/last_valid_gid could be applied.

Thanks Heiko
