I can confirm that this is still an issue in Lucid.  This was not an
issue with Hardy.

Setting "group: files nis" in /etc/nsswitch.conf causes all of my NIS
groups to show up.  Setting this to compat causes one of the NIS groups
to go away.  I'm not sure why only one of the groups goes away.  Perhaps
something with pam_group.so is only allowing one group to be passed in
through NIS to SSH clients?  This is a server, so I can't test GDM.  All
of my groups show up if I log in on the console.
