It seems that nscd was installed as a dependency along with libnss-ldap. # apt-cache show libnss-ldap |grep ^Recommends Recommends: nscd, libpam-ldap After stopping nscd and restart of samba changing of group memberships are recognized immediately by samba now. What I still find curious is, that getent(1) was aware of the modification and samba not. Since it is recommended to use nscd when using LDAP (for performance reasons), instead of stopping or even deinstalling nscd one should better call nscd with the --invalidate option (e. g. "nscd --invalidate group") after making modifications in the LDAP tree. I don't believe, that I am the only who stumbled upon this problem. Perhaps this should be mentioned somewhere in the documentation/Samba HOWTO collection? (You know this cases: your boss is calling you and tells you, that Mr. Miller needs access to this folder right now.)
