Matter of fact, when I configure it, the DCGI_GROUP="\"www\"" and so does the DMAIL_GROUP. I think it's taking the 67 as a gid and finding the group it belongs to. I'm still not exactly sure how it can't see the gid when it goes to run the cgi script I thought it would be able to, especially since the set_gid bit is enabled. Would it help if I added a /var/www/etc/group file with 67 mapped to 'www'?
