I was making the assumption you were using NIS[+], seems I was wrong.
skip all the ypcat calls I had. if you are using some other method of
distributed authentication you will need to get its data in where I was
doing the ypcat info, and I am assuming that the distributed auth uses the
same format as the local auth files.

note I did not wrap the above lines quite correctly, it should have been:
cat /etc/group > /tmp/workoutgroup ;  \
grep username_from_Q1 /tmp/workoutuser | \
awk -F: '{print $4}' > /tmp/workoutgid
