Go to www.padl.com and get the migration tools. These will help you
generate group ldif files from your /etc/group etc. You can then use an
LDAP tool to make templates from the imported groups.

NSS_LDAP looks for groups defined in the way that the migration tools
produce them, based on the settings in /etc/ldap.conf which tell
NSS_LDAP where to look in the directory for stuff.
Here is a group entry from my server:
dn: cn=sales, ou=Group, dc=omnis-software,dc=com
gidnumber: 504
objectclass: posixGroup
objectclass: top
cn: sales
Hope this helps,
Joe
