SuSE is using rfc2307bis by default (instead of rfc2307, which is called
"nis.schema"). In this new set of definitions, posixGroup is auxiliary.
SO you need to:
- add a structural OC to your group entries (recommended one seems to be
  groupOfNames and the member attribute)
- change the structuralObjectClass from your dump to point to this
  additional OC you are going to use

or change back to nis.schema.
