Ok, I got it. The problem came from nscd, which does not seem to work
very well with LDAP modifications, I had to invalidate its cache and
it now works :

[root at samba ~]# nscd --invalidate=group
[root at samba ~]#
[root at samba ~]# su - lc159 -c id
uid=1178(lc159) gid=1204(lc159) groups=1008(dim),1204(lc159)
