Bernhard,

how have you created the user/group entries in openLDAP, manually or via SaMBa? Do you use a SaMBa server, too? If yes: Can the SaMBa server work with the entries or does it have problems as well?

I had quite a time to set all references (SaMBa to Unix groups&users) straight and had created a number of entries manually, but in the meantime both the SaMBa server and DSS seem to like our LDAP content

Have you checked the slapd logs to see what queries are sent by the DSS and whether valid results are returned or not?

I've found the following message that may be related to the source of your trouble:
