I want to be able to set the "current group" at login time.
1. Right now all files created by "scp" can only have the GID of the primary
group and I have to "ssh" into the machine a 2nd time to run "chmod" on all new
files.
2. I can't run scripts via "ssh" in any other group. In theory there is "newgrp"
but that ONLY works in interactive mode since a new shell is spawned.
