Hi Michael,
Thank you for trying to help me with my problem. It's sincerely appreciated.
All the users were created with the default gid of 9999, which was the default "users" group. I have other groups on the system, and these other groups don't show up in the "groups <username>" command.
I'm puzzled. I ran into something similar a long time ago because nscd cached old information, so I disabled the service on the centos 5.5 box.
thanks.

However yesterday I added another group called "team0" with gid 22222 using the following ldif file:
dn: cn=team0,ou=systems,dc=ehs,dc=edu cn: team0 gidNumber: 22222 objectClass: posixGroup
When I was logged into my client machine (Centos 5.5 box) and did a groups on an old user, it showed "users", "dev" and now "team0" although I never added that user to the new group.
What is the gidNumber value (primary group) of the old user entry?
Ciao, Michael.
