You can start from looking at advapi32 calls. Most of them are wrappers around ntdll, so you'll need to look at ntdll calls as well.

The "right" way would be using UNIX groups. But it's more of the question of how it's implemented in Wine. To properly get / set / check group membership you might have to add lots of code into lots of places, including wineserver. Hack would add your group in one place where the program looks.
