ldap groups?

Hi,

In the past I have created an LDAP group 'Accounting' and used
that group to set permissions on shares coming from a Windows 2003
server. I am now trying to create a group 'Marketing' for the same
purpose. I have created the group in phpLdapAdmin and created the
group using smbldap-groupadd. Oh, and I copied the 'Accounting' group
to 'Marketing'. Each time I create the group I can see the group in
phpLdapAdmin and also with 'getent group' on linux. When I try to
modify the permissions for the directory in Windows 2003 server the
group 'Marketing' does not appear in the list of groups I can add to
the directory. There are no errors displayed, the group 'Marketing'
is just not there.

Any ideas?

Mike

Turns out the GID of the new group was the same GID as the original
group. Changing the GID value to something else worked.
