Eddie Again it depends on how you want to manage things.
There is no requirment that a user and group of the same name exits. I seem to remember reading somewhere that this is a ReHat thing. Basically the users group can be what ever you want it to be to meet how you want to manage your security. For my test setup I haven't moved the existing Unix groups to LDAP, but for a production environment I probably would. If you change a users Unix group make sure that you change the users files/directory ownerships/permissions to match.
