ok just to help this along I have not been keeping up but it looks like you are using LDAP for auth. so if you want a list of the groups try a lsgroup ALL
and put it in a file for reference and search it for group ID and match to human name.
ok not sure I understand what you are asking but here is a output from lsgroup that should be usable for you
lsgroup -c -a id ALL |grep -v "#"
It produces the following
Now the reflect the complete group name I am not understanding what you want? the first column is the group name the second is the group id.
Now if you want is shown all the time like from a ls command then:
1. check if the max_logname is big enough
2. if it is not big enough set it (up to 256 max):
3. now for this to be effective you will have to reboot.
4. once rebooted the all that is needed is a ls -lX (ls -(L) lower case and a uppercase X

Just to add if you want a output format with columns of consistent size then typeset is what you will need and the -R or -L (flush left or right) and the number of characters to show or fill: typeset -R20 Your_Var_Name
then when a value is assigned it will flush (L or R) and fill as needed and then you just display it.
