This one does return the rest of the information for me, but I just realized 
I'm chasing the wrong thing now.

Your primary group is 'users' and not 'external', so this is not the problem.

Googling for getgrnam and ldap came up with this page:

Could it be that your nsswitch.conf is also configured incorrectly?

Another interesting one:

Could it be that you have a group external both in /etc/group and on LDAP?

I'm inclined to say that this is a problem with your LDAP setup, but since 
everything else works ok I can't really explain it. Based on the code of the 
test app I see little other possible explanations though.
