I personally prefer files over compat unless you do things with
netgroups. They should be equivalent in most cases and shouldn't matter
for the problem you're seeing.

The patrikx3 group needs to exist in LDAP for it to show up. The
easiest way to perform a group lookup from the command line is
  getent group 10000

If you are tweaking your configuration be sure to stop nscd because it
may cache some values. To get more useful debugging info you can run
nslcd with the -d option so see what it does exactly.

For group lookups the cn attribute should be mapped to the name of the
group, gidNumber to the numeric group id. You can use memberUid to map
to usersnames that are in the group and member to user distinguished
names. For the lookup above you just need the cn and gidNumber
attributes working, the member(Uid) attributes are only needed for user
secondary groups.

Hope this helps,
