Then use pam_group to temporarily assign those groups to users. That way the gids can be different on every system, and you can even gain performance by having less groups in LDAP. Especially if you have more than a handful of users (and if you are considering LDAP, I assume you have), groups with hudreds or thousands of members can cause headaches.
