List ALL users in a Unix Group (Primary and Secondary)

Is there a command or better combination of cmds that will give me the list of Unix users in a particular Unix group whether their primary group is that group in question (information stored in /etc/passwd) or they are in a secondary group (information stored in /etc/group).

So far all I got is a combination of the following:
groupName=XXXXX
groupId=$( getent group | egrep "^${groupName}:" | cut -d: -f3 )
getent passwd | egrep "^.*:.*:.*:${groupId}" | cut -f1 -d:
getent group | egrep "^${groupName}:" | cut -f4 -d:

(Yeah for all you NIS and/or LDAP guys, I did use the getent commands)
