[Bug 771698] Re: /usr/bin/id does not show ldap groups

I am unmarking this as a security issue. If a user is a part of a group
that is listed in getent, the user is supposed to be in that group and
any DAC checks should be checking for that. The fact that id shows fewer
groups is not a security issue-- the user should have fewer privileges
than with the intended ldap groups.

Also, for a developer to help with this, please attach your pam
configuration and nsswitch.conf as a start.
