Krzysztof Malinowski commented on JENKINS-10702:
------------------------------------------------

This is non-trivial, since newgrp actually executes a new shell and new group 
is set only within this shell. Since Jenkins is not talking to a shell but 
rather executes processes directly this is not possible without some major 
logic in command launcher. I'm not saying it's not possible, but it's 
definitely not a one-liner.

> We have a single user that has access to all the clearcase vobs. However 
> access to each of the vobs is restricted by the user's primary group. We have

> Can Jenkins enable this option too?
