When I start seeing weird things like this, I often resort to tracing
the program in question to see where it thinks it's getting it's info
from. Try this both as the user and via su and compare the output.
RHEL5 should have strace, so try something like this:
[root@user ~]# su - juser
user:/home/juser> strace -o asroot groups
and
user:/home/juser> strace -o asuser groups
then compare the asroot and asuser files. A graphical diffing utility
like meld may be helpful.
Let us know what you find out!
