I don't know if I understand your problem correctly but I handle group
membership on the thin clients with the pam_group module (in Debian/Ubuntu:
package libpam-modules). The well documented configuration file is
/etc/security/group.conf.
There I have an entry like this:
*;*;*;Al0000-2400;fuse,audio,cdrom,scanner
This mean: on all days of the week between 0 and 24 h users who log in get
added to the groups fuse, audio, cdrom and scanner.
Is this what you want?
Regards
Helmut
