If you are in X(Gnome). Click on the file and right click to view properties. Check the permissions to see what the file is set at. When a file is created. Most of the time the files are saved so just the owner is can rw. In the folder you created. See if you can paste a file into the folder you are sharing with that group ID. If you can and don't get an error. Then the folder is setup right.
