I know I am a member of the group, just defined it in LDAP. And also getent group proves me right..

However if I try to access a directory having the specified group ownership(not world readable), I can NOT.

Let's see what id has to say:

.. code-block:: shell-session

alf@melmac:~$ id alf

Oops one of my groups is missing :)

Solution: Just log-out and log-in, cause I guess group memberships are read on login.
