Thanks for you suggestion! In the end, I did it the other way round, using: passwd: files ldap group: files [success=continue] ldap This has the effect of "merging" the multiple group sources into one, as can be seen here % getent group|grep wheel wheel:*:0:root,us I now have to play a little bit with bootup (no LDAP present) and what happens when LDAP goes offline, etc. Thanks again!
