    autocompletion and stuff has nothing to do with groups user is in.
    it is a matter of configuring the user's shell. for tcsh, you might
    want something like

    bindkey     -b      C-I     complete-word

    put this in .tcshrc in the user's home, and type (as that user):

    > source ~/.tcshrc

    HTH && HAND
