Re: Maximum number of groups to which an account can belong
Yes, newgrp is a way to get into many groups as long as you don't need to be in them concurrently. Access control lists may also be helpful in working around this limit.

Re: Maximum number of groups to which an account can belong
The length of each line in /etc/group is limited to LINE_MAX, as
defined in
listed in their primary group - only in their additional groups.
LINE_MAX is 2048 Bytes - so, you can have as many groupd that will fit in 2048 Bytes - if you group names are 3 chars - then you get more then if your group names are 15 charchters...
