Everything is great now.  I found a typo in ldap.conf

"Group" should of been "Groups"...

But something to note.  When I did an "id" on someone it would now show 
all the groups they were in, but it still did not reslove to the correct 
name!  I kept on poking around and finally stumbelled upon nscd.  I 
restarted it, and everything started resolving names.

Thanks guys,
