[SunHELP] Group memberships.

Hi! I have a user who is a member of two groups. The user accesses/creates
directories and files under both permissions. The user is getting frustrated
with the frequency with which he has to use the newgrp command. Is there a way
in which he can do his work without having to use the newgrp command so
frequently? Is there a way to set things that the OS recognizes your group
memberships and you are able to work without having to use newgrp to change
your group?

I cannot set world permissions in the areas where the user is working. Also I
cannot combine the files/dirs into one group since they belong to different
departments.

Thanks a lot.

Regards
Ajit
