Can anyone what's the maximum user per group in Solaris 7 & 8?

I read from the latest Solaris FAQ it reads:

> *7.6) How can I have more than 16 groups per user?
> 
> The number of groups per user can be increased to at most 32:
> 
> set ngroups_max = 32
> 
> This setting may give rise to NFS interoperability problems, as typical NFS
> servers only support 16 groups when using AUTH_SYS/AUTH_UNIX.
> 
> The other NFS authentication mechanisms map "netids" to usernames
> on the servers and can support more than 16 groups.

But referring to document, 806-4015.pdf, Solaris Tunable Parameters
Reference Manual, I can't seem to find that parameter anymore... So what's
the story, anyone know?
