Well I was looking to specifically refresh the groups that a user
belonged to - I kept trying and even after 24hrs, the old information
was still being returned.

This has worked, now the client reports that user belongs to the
correct groups. It also appears to correctly refresh the cache when I
login. I have added and removed my user from a few groups and this is
correctly reflected by the results of the 'id' command.

Maybe the cache was corrupted?

Thanks,
