I don't know if I understand your problem correctly but I handle group membership on the thin clients with the pam_group module (in Debian/Ubuntu: package libpam-modules). The well documented configuration file is /etc/security/group.conf. There I have an entry like this: *;*;*;Al0000-2400;fuse,audio,cdrom,scanner This mean: on all days of the week between 0 and 24 h users who log in get added to the groups fuse, audio, cdrom and scanner. Is this what you want?
