| Works for me.

| Before:
|
| # ls -l /dev/ttyS*
| crw-rw---- 1 root uucp 4, 64 Jun 15 16:16 /dev/ttyS0
| crw-rw---- 1 root uucp 4, 65 Jun 15 16:16 /dev/ttyS1
| crw-rw---- 1 root uucp 4, 66 Jun 15 16:16 /dev/ttyS2
| crw-rw---- 1 root uucp 4, 67 Jun 15 16:16 /dev/ttyS3
|
| Created /etc/udev/rules.d/99-udev-override.rules containing:
|
| KERNEL=="tty[A-Z]*", GROUP="users", MODE="0660", OPTIONS="last_rule"
|
| After reboot:
|
| # ls -l /dev/ttyS*
| crw-rw---- 1 root users 4, 64 Jun 16 10:45 /dev/ttyS0
| crw-rw---- 1 root users 4, 65 Jun 16 10:45 /dev/ttyS1
| crw-rw---- 1 root users 4, 66 Jun 16 10:45 /dev/ttyS2
| crw-rw---- 1 root users 4, 67 Jun 16 10:45 /dev/ttyS3
|
| However, if I use a group name that isn't in /etc/groups (but is
| defined
| in say NIS), then the group is set to root after a reboot - but using
| the GID of that group works.

AHA! We use NIS here and I didn't even think that it wouldn't set the GROUP properly if it couldn't resolve it properly. James, you're brilliant! That fixed it.
