I'm sorry, I didn't specify, I'm using LDAP for user/group management.
Ideally a command like 'groups' would be nice, except it would be the
inverse, it would print the users in a group, not the groups a user
belongs to.
With commas separating groups:
getent group | egrep -i '^groupname:' | awk -F : '{ print $4}'
With spaces separating groups:
getent group | egrep -i '^groupname:' | awk -F : '{ print $4}' | sed -e 's/,/

ok, Barry wins. :)
But, I don't think you need the egrep ...
getent group groupname | ...
works ok for me.
The egrep is using a leading anchor (^) to make sure the grep matches the
beginning of the line. If not, and the group pattern matched as one of
the users it would print those lines too .. which is probably undesirable.
