I dont know of any other way than writing a script.
In .profile you call the script:
. /~/yourscriptvar (where you set all the variables you will need)
exec /~/yourscript (that does the testing of the conditions and exit

In the profiles (/etc/profile, $HOME/.profile) you can check the group membership with the grget command. Depending on the output, you can allow access or deny access based on the return from the grget command.
