Have you check with getent command if your platform response correctly?
try "getent group
<GROUP_WITH_A_LOT_OF_USERS_FROM_YOUR_LDAP_BACKEND>"
It should returns a members list like a line from /etc/group.
If it does not work, check your entry in nsswitch.conf and replace
"passwd compat" by "passwd ldap" (do the same for the group
and maybe
for shadow)
Another thing you could try is use the recently "ldapsam:trusted =
yes"
option... take care of the considerations to make it work!
