This code should be considered as an OPTION only, it works under MY set of circumstances, and that is all I intended. The below funtion will return the NAME of the GROUP if provided with the Group ID#
 function RC_posix_getgrgid($gid) 
  {
  $LocationGroup = "/etc/group"; //EDIT THIS IF YOU HAVE A DIFFERENT OS. mine = debian
  $fp = fopen ("/etc/group","r");
  while ($groupinfo = fscanf ($fp, "%[a-zA-Z0-9]:x:%[0-9]:%[a-zA-Z0-9]\n")) 
    {
    list ($name, $groupID, $nfi) = $groupinfo;
    if ($groupID == $gid)
      {
      $returnval = $name;
      }
    }
  fclose($fp);
  if($returnval) { return $returnval; } else { return 0; }
  }

When posix_getgrgid() fails (e.g. an invalid/unknown group id), it returns false.
This is except for Mac OSX on which you get an array with name "nogroup" and gid of "-1".

in php-4.3 the array returned seems to have changed.
it now returns:
["name"] group name
["passwd"] group password
["members"] group members (array of usernames)
["gid"] numeric group id

Returns an array containing the elements of the group structure. The array has both numeric indices, each of which is a string naming one member of the group, and named string indices. The array elements are:
$_["name"] string groupname (users)
$_["gid"] integer gidnumber (e.g. 0 for wheel/root)
$_["members"] int number of users in group
$_[0]..$_[n] string usernames in the group
