On your client, if its properly binded you should be able to see your remote mappings ie do this getent passwd getent group And see if the user and groupmember information for that user are there. ashley at gp01:/etc:554> getent group |grep -i ashley motorola:*:32705:ashley acm:*:32071:ashley,luigi Now that only shows that the ldap lookup / binding is working. If it isn't then something wrong with your binding, if it is then try mapping the group information directly. ie edit /etc/ldap.conf and edit the nss_base_group. The only other place I think of is that you didn't tell your linux system to used the LDAP lookup information for groups which is specified in /etc/nsswitch.conf For unix there three main files / variables which are passwd, shadow and group. For nsswitch.conf I've got lookup local information followed by LDAP information ie in passwd: files ldap shadow: files ldap group: files ldap Thats all I can think of at the moment.
