Grsecurity & identd
My desktop is running great with kernel Grsecurity set to "Low". I'd
like to try bumping it up to "Medium", but help says:

If you enable this option, make sure that your auth service (identd)
is
running as gid 10 (usually group wheel).

How can I do that, and are there any drawbacks?

Unless you've set one up yourself, you probably don't even have an
auth service running. Gentoo doesn't use one by default.
