man initgroups:

    ERRORS
        The initgroups() function may fail and set errno for any of the
        errors specified for the library function setgroups(2).

man setgroups:

    [EINVAL] The number specified in the ngroups argument is larger
             than the NGROUPS limit.

Either get out of some groups, or raise NGROUPS (this may affect NFS
though).

Newer version of nss_ldap have timeout veriables to adjust this, but
your best solution would be to set up another ldap server and put them
both in your ldap.conf so you'll never be without one.
