We experience the same issue. Changes at group membership are not 
available for a client until the user is logged in again.

Strange is, that if we `net cache flush` and even stop winbindd; remove 
winbindd_*tdb; start winbindd the same old information is again there.

On the domain controller side everything is instantly available also 
replicated to other domain controller.

Domain controller:
1. Add user to a group
2. `id username`
- Group is there

File server:
2. `id username`
- Group is not there
3. Login with as username
- Group is there

Is this by design?

4.15.2-SerNet-RedHat-6.el8

Greetings,

Tobias
