Formats? What formats? :-) Setup has already has some badly punctuated /
badly spelt log strings. Anyway, I'd suggest something like this:

if (isusers)
{
    nsid = usid;
    log(LOG_TIMESTAMP) << "Changing gid to Users" << endLog;
}
else if (isadmins)
    nsid = asid;

    log(LOG_TIMESTAMP) << "Changing gid to Administrators" << endLog;
}

*I must pay more attention!*
