Question on Access Privilleges

Hi, I have 2 questions with regards to the granting of access privilleges to various tables in an Informix (OnLine) database running on Unix. 1) Can I grant permissions to a group of users (based on the Unix 'group') in one shot rather than to each individual user separately? In this way, I do not need to modify the table privileges whenever I add or remove a user account from the Unix group concerned. 2) If I have an ESQL/C program that has the SET_UID bit set, will whoever that runs this program have the same access privilleges as me? In other words, does Informix checks the REAL user-id or the EFFECTIVE user-id when checking for access violations? Thanks in advance for any help.
