Have you configured /etc/nsswitch.conf to look up active directory

I have not configured LDAP for this task. I do have winbind configured
though for Samba Authentication. Do I have to setup LDAP also to all
group specification in the SSHD config? 


sshd just uses getgrouplist() (or the equivalent getgrent() calls) to
determine which groups a given user is in.  As long as the "groups"
part of nsswitch.conf is set up and works correctly then sshd should
be able to use it.  (I have not used winbind so I'm not sure what steps
are required in order to do this, though.)

    Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
