Re: group ownership
It probably isn't a complete disaster. The programs that resolve the groupname will just report the GID instead of the group name. If you do an 'ls -l' on some files that belong to the group you accidentally deleted, you'll probably see that. You should be able to just edit /etc/group or go into SAM and add the entry for the group again.

Re: group ownership
It is sort of like doing a lookup for a hostname in your /etc/hosts file against an IP address. If you find a match you know what hostname belongs to the IP address. If you don't find a match, you just have an IP address.
