script regarding listing long group names
Hello,
When listing the file systems (using ls -ltr) , if the group names are longer the group name is getting truncated.
Can someone help with the script which would display the truncated group name?
I appreciate if someone could help in this regard.

grpck
pwck(1M) System Administration Commands pwck(1M)
NAME
pwck, grpck - password/group file checkers
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/pwck [filename]
/usr/sbin/grpck [filename]
DESCRIPTION
pwck scans the password file and notes any inconsistencies. The checks include validation of the number of fields, login name, user ID,
group ID, and whether the login directory and the program-to-use-as-shell exist. The default password file is /etc/passwd.
grpck verifies all entries in the group file. This verification includes a check of the number of fields, group name, group ID, whether
any login names belong to more than NGROUPS_MAX groups, and that all login names appear in the password file. grpck also issues a warning
if it finds an entry (a single line) in the group file longer than 2047 characters. Such an entry causes group maintenance commands, such
as groupdel(1M) and groupmod(1M), to fail.
The default group file is /etc/group.
All messages regarding inconsistent entries are placed on the stderr stream.
FILES
o /etc/group
o /etc/passwd
ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
| ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE |
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
|Availability |SUNWcsu |
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
SEE ALSO
groupdel(1M), groupmod(1M), getpwent(3C), group(4), passwd(4), attributes(5)
DIAGNOSTICS
Group entries in /etc/group with no login names are flagged.
Group file 'filename' is empty
The /etc/passwd or /etc/group file is an empty file.
cannot open file filename: No such file or directory
The /etc/passwd or /etc/group file does not exist.
NOTES
If no filename argument is given, grpck checks the local group file, /etc/group, and also makes sure that all login names encountered in
the checked group file are known to the system getpwent(3C) routine. This means that the login names may be supplied by a network name
service.
