I present various projects to study the halo dynamics of elliptical galaxies.
This allows one to study the outer mass and orbital distributions of
ellipticals in different environments, and the inner distributions of groups
and clusters themselves.Comment: 5 pages, 2 figs, to appear in Proc. ESO Workshop, Groups of Galaxies
