The user may also be a member of multiple groups.

I don't use apache auth but here is an alternative to SetEnv.
<?php
$dir_groups = file( "htgroupd" ) ;
die ( "<pre>" . print_r ( $dir_groups , true ) . "</pre>" ) ;
?>

Personally I like to useing something other then apache auth so you  
can do simple things like LOGOUT without a bunch of trickery.

Check out pear auth for something simple:
