Hi - you cannot specify groups in the admit section, but you
can use groups to define classes that can be used to predicate
an admit rule e.g.
groups:
mygroup = ( +nisgroup )
admit:
mygoup::
/file *.domain
Alertantively you could make a list:
control:
list = ( a.b.c.d:A.B.C.D:m.n.x.y )
admit:
file $(list)
The domain variable is used in cases where fully qualified names
are not specified.

PS - there is no dest= in admit.
