I got that. I was asking if the same id is uid *and* pgid. Sorry
if that wasn't clear.
Here are the first few lines of my "id" output (the entire output is huge, as we make excessive use of AD groups here):
>> uid=1125370(U074036) gid=1049089(Domain Users) groups=1049089(Domain Users),197609(EW54384R82P30V+Debugger Users),197617(EW54384R82P30V+DorincoServerAdmins),197619(EW54384R82P30V+Offer Remote Assistance Helpers),555(Remote Desktop Users),545(Users),4(INTERACTIVE),66049(CONSOLE LOGON),11(Authenticated Users),15(This Organization),66048(LOCAL),1275934(InternetUsers),1360436(VPNUsers),1716061(CRM-SHARE-FC),1059330(ep-fc),1062240(ps-sixsigma-change),1882511(TDCC-Users),1716058(CRM-DB-FC),1854531(app-inst-acrobatpro-4),1241820(synergyadm44-chg),2261836(GDC_DR-SHR),1328857(FsmUsers1-G),1058762(Dow-Chem-Emp-List),2269908(GRP-WEB-SHR),18896

The problem here is the abbreviation in both cases. What I was looking
for is if your user uid/SID shows up in the token group list as well.
I don't need the full list, but can you please check?
