Thanks for the reply. id and the user shows the correct uid and gid and getent passwd displays info like it would be in the passwd file. Openldap is currently working with Sendmail.
Normally the users don't have shell accounts, but I am adding a shell in ldap for my test user and I can not su, or login as that user. So now I am trying to see what is the difference between the user that I create locally on the box that works with the user that is in LDAP. getent passwd "user" and id "user" both show correct values.

I can't comment on SA and LDAP: I have site-wide SA filtering both with SA-Exim 4.20/3.0 and Postfix 2.0.10/amavisd-new. However, Openldap 2.1.19 is the basis for all my users - and for just about everything else on my own machine - including the above mentioned MTAs. In principle, there is absolutely no difference between an ldap-based and a Unix/Posix-based user. I keep all my stuff as up to date as possible - nss_ldap, f.ex., is 203.6. It could well be that your ldap stuff is old, that your nss_ldap is not correctly configured (etc/ldap.conf & nsswitch.conf), it could be many things. I'd check these before anything else. What happens when you do 'id <user>' or 'getent passwd <user>'? Does an su or a login for that user occur normally? (i.e., is pam configured correctly?)
