Title:
  gdm does not obey NIS settings for user groups

Status in “eglibc” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gdm

  if I login through gdm, I only belong to the following groups:

  $ groups
  kotowicz adm dialout cdrom audio video plugdev fuse lpadmin netdev admin sambashare vboxusers

  If I login into the same machine through ssh, I belong to the
  following groups:

  $ groups
  kotowicz adm dialout cdrom audio video plugdev fuse lpadmin netdev admin sambashare vboxusers Rich Nsc

  as you can see, the groups 'Rich' and 'Nsc' have been added. 
  In previous ubuntu versions (9.10), logging through gdm was adding me to the correct groups.
