I added the posixgroup to the Object class of a group and gave it a gidnumber. The user I'm trying to login as is defined as a member of the group I added posixgroup to but still the group doesn't seem to have been retrieved because when I do 'id' the group name isn't displayed.

Its done at the same time as you create the user via the GUI or via the ldif file where you have to add the object type posixgroup explicitely

Quick run down you can find it here doing via ldif command line

I used a copy of Example.ldif changed the root dn and configuring my users and imported it. I used the console to make my users posix users adding their uid and gid. When I ssh into the box as a user not configured on the box the user home dir and contents specified in /etc/skel are created but the gid is a numeric value as the group doesn't exist on the box. Do I need to create the groups of network logins on all the client boxes? I don't see a way to associate a gid with a group in fedora-ds. What's the right way top
You can create group on the client to match the gidnumber in the ldap. Alternatively, you can create a posixgroup entry in the LDAP.
