I had one last thought (assuming that the problem isn't in the version
of ldap that you are using - you might wish to check with padl)

are the SID's from your group and your local machine the same?

[root at linserv2 config]# ldapsearch -x -h localhost -D \
'cn=root,o=DOMAIN,c=US' -W '(cn=users-all)'
Enter LDAP Password:
version: 2

#
# filter: (cn=users-all)
# requesting: ALL
#

# users-all, Groups, DOMAIN, US
dn: cn=users-all,ou=Groups,o=DOMAIN,c=US
objectClass: posixGroup
objectClass: top
objectClass: sambaGroupMapping
cn: users-all
userPassword:: e2NyeXB0fXg=
gidNumber: 1000
memberUid: kbenedetto
memberUid: Administrator
memberUid: catchalladv
memberUid: catchallpr
memberUid: nkelley
sambaSID: S-1-5-21-1292501092-333717336-619646970-513
sambaGroupType: 2
displayName: Domain Users
description: Local Unix group

# search result

[root at linserv2 config]# net getlocalsid
SID for domain LINSERV2 is: S-1-5-21-1292501092-333717336-619646970

obvious the GID has the group # suffixed at the end but are otherwise
the same
