What are Owner and Group settings for /dev/ttyS* ?



Just wondering what the owner and group should be set to for the
/dev/ttyS0 to /dev/ttyS3 files.  I'm having problems allowing anyone
other than root using these devices to dial out using minicom or PPP.
I find that if I set the owner and group to UUCP, everything works OK. 
Why is this so and what exactly is user/group UUCP?

Thanks
Robert
