    hello,

    given a gid or uid, how do i get the group name or user name
    respectively? i'm doing this within php, but i will be executing
    something via the cl and then storing the results. i know i can grep the
    /etc/passwd and /etc/group files but i'd like to find out if there's a
    better way.

    can someone help me out with this?

    thanks,
    chris.
