Thank you all for the quick replies!

Going to try to answer everyone here:

@Spike

> Do you mean that you're using AD (or an LDAP server) with the RFC2307bis
schema extension that adds the extra UNIX-y attributes for users and
groups?  (home dir, uid, gid, gecos, login shell)

Yes, but right now I only care for users being mapped properly. Since we do 
have a few groups with POSIX gidNumber attribute, they also get mapped.

> And that your POSIX groups have these fields populated, while your non-POSIX 
> groups don't have these fields populated?

Right, non-posix groups are regular AD groups without the gidNumber.

@Alexey

> Is this important for you to preserve existing POSIX attributes?

For users, yes, but for the groups, not really. I simply am looking to allow 
access to a host if they are a memberof an AD group. In my case, an AD group 
that does not have gidNumber attribute. (non-posix)

Yes, I would agree. Unfortunately, it is not an easy process for my org to do 
this for groups. (red-tape *eyeroll*)
This is why I was wondering if it is possible to do something like 
simple_allow_groups = non-posix_ad_group functionality.

Thank you!
