+.SH NAME
+checkgid \- checks the gid 
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B checkgid group 
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This manual page documents briefly the
+.B checkgid 
+command.
+.PP
+.\" TeX users may be more comfortable with the \fB<whatever>\fP and
+.\" \fI<whatever>\fP escape sequences to invode bold face and italics, 
+.\" respectively.
+\fBcheckgid\fP is a program that checks whether it can setgid to the group
+specified. This is to see if it is a valid group for apache2 to use at runtime.
+If the user (should be run as superuser) is in that group, or can setgid to it,
+it will return 0.
+.SH AUTHOR
+This manual page was written by Daniel Stone <daniel@sfarc.net> for the Debian
+GNU/Linux distribution, as the original did not have a manpage.
