Hello Yoann. I am working with similar issues at the moment in a biotech company in Denmark.
First of all what authentication setup are you using? If you are using sssd there is a very simple and useful utility called sss_override You can óverride' the uid which you get from LDAP with the genuine one. Oops. On reading your email more closely. Why not just add ceph to your /etc/group file?
