Each posixGroup can have multiple memberUid entries. In our
environment, a memberUid is specified by username (not numeric uid); I
suspect that's normal practice, but you might want to get confirmation
from others.
A user's posixAccount record has no backward mapping of group
memberships; it only contains the standard gidNumber entry.
In short:
1. Define the posixGroup DN
2. Add one or more memberUid entries.
