Thats extremely strange, I've made clients including Fedora,Suse and
Ubuntu bind to the FDS Ldap without a problem like that.
Can you just verify something for me.
ie login via the console or ssh into your client machine ie as jsmith as
in your example and type
groups.
It should just list your groups in the shortform.
ie you should see
testgroup blah blah (all your groups)
as with your example, you shouldn't see the ou,dc bits.
If it does you can remap the lookup / search base usually by editing
ldap.conf which you can find in /etc/ldap.conf most of the time including
Fedora, SUSE & Ubuntu, but I can't say anything about Gentoo as I've
havn't dealt with it recently.
You should then look at the mappings / lookup ie for nss_base_passwd,
nss_base_shadow, nss_base_group which are the three basic fields with
Linux/Unix.
In your case you would be dealing with nss_base_group.
If you are caching the fields is with nscd you would have to do
the same with nscd.conf.
But still I find that extremely strange.

Hi,
I'm trying to setup authentication against Fedora DS on Linux box
(Gentoo). Everything is working fine, except for one thing - I have
groups with members in uniqueMember attributes and I have there full DNs
- like "uid=sstipl,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com", but the nss expects me
to have there just logins (uid's value in this case).
So when I do "getent group" I receive something like this from groups
from LDAP:
testgroup:*:1010:uid=sstipl,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com,
uid=jsmith,ou=users,dc=example,dc=com
Any idea how to setup probably nss? to use just RND value (uid's in this
case) from the uniqueMember attribute? To get this:
"testgroup:*:1010:sstipl,jsmith"
many thanks.
