Have you try the id command ?
id [-gnruG] [--group] [--name] [--real] [--user] [--groups] [--help] [--version] [username]
By default, it prints the real user ID, real group ID, effective user ID if different from the real user ID, effective group ID if dif ferent from the real group ID, and supplemental group IDs. It prints each of these values preceded by a string identifying it and followed by the corresponding user or group name in parentheses. Post back if this doesnt help..

setregid
SETREGID(2) BSD System Calls Manual SETREGID(2)
NAME
setregid -- set real and effective group ID
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h>
int
setregid(gid_t rgid, gid_t egid);
DESCRIPTION
The real and effective group ID's of the current process are set to the arguments. If the real group ID is changed, the saved group ID is
changed to the new value of the effective group ID.
Unprivileged users may change the real group ID to the effective group ID and vice-versa; only the super-user may make other changes.
Supplying a value of -1 for either the real or effective group ID forces the system to substitute the current ID in place of the -1 argument.
The setregid() system call was intended to allow swapping the real and effective group IDs in set-group-ID programs to temporarily relinquish
the set-group-ID value. This system call did not work correctly, and its purpose is now better served by the use of the setegid(2) system
call.
When setting the real and effective group IDs to the same value, the standard setgid() system call is preferred.
RETURN VALUES
The setregid() function returns the value 0 if successful; otherwise the value -1 is returned and the global variable errno is set to indi-
cate the error.
ERRORS
[EPERM] The current process is not the super-user and a change other than changing the effective group-id to the real group-id was
specified.
SEE ALSO
getgid(2), issetugid(2), setegid(2), setgid(2), setuid(2)
HISTORY
The setregid() system call appeared in 4.2BSD.
