Hi Ted,
Thanks for the response. I would like to avoid adding groups to hosts that don't use/need them if at all possible.
Regards,

We've got some boxes that define local groups in /etc/groups. We also scan various filesystems to make sure all files are properly owned. The problem is when a system that does not have one of the local groups defined, cfengine reports 'Unknown group: ....'
Is there any way to avoid this notice w/o having to update all systems' /etc/groups w/ unneccesary groups?
You can add the custom groups with groupadd on the specific machines you need, and check for their existence so you don't run groupadd twice.
cfperl (http://lifelogs.com/cfperl) does this automatically, for groups and users both.
