Very likely the reason you cannot chgrp that file to group 'sas' is
that you are not a member of that group.  The 'id' command will return
what groups you are in.

  id

If you are not listed in the 'sas' group then that is the most likely
reason that the kernel is not allowing you to change the group of the
file.

If this is the problem then to enable this operation you would add
yourself to the sas group, log out, log in, verify that you are in the
group, then perform the operation again.
