hmmmm...you have to define what "group" means. are they on the same lan
segment? do they share physical media with other such "groups?" are they on the
same logical network? the way i see it, propagating routes in a lan environment
is only useful if you have multiple gateways. and from experience, it's easier
to just put a default gateway for all computers and play with the routing from
there. unless of course, you serve as an ISP or a network provider like IPhil.
anyways, the straight off answer to your question would be to run routed on
your gateway, on active mode. u have to be quite carefull as your machines may
end up not reaching anything at all by believing your RIP bcasts which have
faulty routes. a student once did this to the whole physics subnet by running
routed without properly configuring it first.
