SFTP & LDAP groups

Hi all,

I just happened to notice that my UNIX groups, pulled from LDAP, don't show up correctly in file listings via SFTP. My LDAP system is correctly set up through pam_ldap & nss_ldap, such that LDAP-only account and group names show up just fine when looking at file ownership, etc. But when using SFTP, a directory listing only shows file ownership via the numeric UID/GID, not by the textual names like everything else.

My main normal-user account and group are in LDAP. See below for an example.

Via normal FTP, SSH shell, etc:
ftp> ls -l
229 Entering Extended Passive Mode (|||49026|)
150 Opening ASCII mode data connection for file list
drwxr-xr-x 8 sbalmos sbalmos 512 Jun 4 22:03 public_html
226 Transfer complete.
ftp>

Via SFTP:
sftp> ls -l
<...snip unnecessary listings...>
drwxr-xr-x 0 2001 2001 512 Jun 4 18:03 public_html
sftp>

Ideas on whether this is an SSHd setting somewhere, etc ? Thanks!

--Scott
