I recently set up a Linux server with LDAP user information. The group id (gid) from LDAP is not useful on this server. It took me a while to figure out how to override the group id. The trick is to modify this file /etc/nslcd.conf . Add this line to the file.
map passwd gidNumber "gid_number"
Replace the gid_number with the number you want. Save the file and restart the service.
sudo /sbin/service nslcd restart
