samba - Nov 2006 - apache, apache's mod-auth-pam, and pam_winbind : no nested groups

this problem might be more to do with apache than winbind, but I'll
start here anyway...

Problem: can't get apache httpauth to work with nested groups, though
         ssh auth (also using pam) to same box does

Config:
--------------------------------------------------------
software: apache 2.0.55, libapache2-mod-auth-pam 1.1.1, and winbind 3.0.22

pertinent apache config:
        AuthPAM_Enabled on
        AuthPAM_FallThrough off
        AuthGROUP_Enabled on

        LoadModule auth_pam_module
        LoadModule auth_sys_group_module 

pertinent winbind config:
        winbind nested groups = yes
        security = ADS

/etc/pam.d/apache2:
        auth sufficient         pam_winbind.so debug
        auth required           pam_unix.so nullok_secure debug

        account sufficient      pam_unix_acct.so debug
        account required        pam_winbind.so debug

.htaccess file:
        AuthName SDLplanRealm
        AuthType Basic

        require group sdl
--------------------------------------------------------

Symptoms:
---------
/var/log/auth.log winbbindd entries say :
        pam_winbind[29410]: user 'detertj' granted access

but /var/log/apache2/ssl_error_log entries say:
        GROUP: detertj not in required group(s).

Conclusion:
-----------
any suggestions as to what to try, where to look, next?  Thanks
