>Description:
When you give -u USER:GRUOP option to ntpd(8), it uses USER's group
instead of GRUOP.
>How-To-Repeat:
% id testuser
uid=20001(testuser) gid=20002(testgroup) groups=20002(testgroup)
% id ntpd
uid=15(ntpd) gid=15(ntpd) groups=15(ntpd)
# ntpd -u testuser:ntpd
% ps -aux -ouid,rgid | grep ntpd
testuser 476 0.3 0.2 732 1620 ?? S<s 6:31PM 0:00.05 ntpd -u 20001 20002
