/etc/group
 
Add it manually, or user lgroupadd/lusermod (the l is for libuser, which isn't 
ldap aware and just touches local files, last I checked).
 
Appologies for top posting and horrible formatting.

        Fabio,

         

        The group is not in LDAP but the user is.  The group is one I created 
on the system itself.  Basically, I am trying to give the user access to a 
folder without giving him root access.

         

        Thanks,

         

        Jeff

        Jeff,

         

        You can use smbldap-tools and type :

         

                # smbldap-groupmod -m <user> <group>

                 

        Or, if you don't use this tool, just add as an attribute of your group 
in LDAP base :

         

                memberUid: <user>

                 

        If you do not use any tool to manage LDAP, you can insert these content 
on a file :

         

                dn: <full DN of group>

                changetype: modify

                add: memberUid

                memberUid: <user>

         

        and then, run the following line :

         

                # ldapmodify -D "<admin DN>" -W -x -f <file>

                 

        A great tool for managing LDAP can be found here :

        Cheers,

        Fábio Rampazzo Mathias

        I just took over our Linux environment and need some assistance with 
groups.  Our users authenticate via LDAP and I need to add a user to a new 
group I created.  How do I add an LDAP user to a group on a single system?
