Check Text (C-271835r1092217_chk)

Verify that OL 9 contains no duplicate GIDs for interactive users with the following command: $ cut -d : -f 3 /etc/group | uniq -d If the system has duplicate GIDs, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-75792r1092216_fix)

Edit the file "/etc/group" and provide each group that has a duplicate GID with a unique GID.
