Hi, have you tried 'getent group Domain\ Users' ?

Mind you if all else fails, ditch winbind and use sssd

getent group
root:x:0:
.........
Domain Admins:*:27:
Domain Guests:*:65534:
Domain Users:*:100:
linuxusers:*:10000:

getent group 100
users:x:100:

getent group users
users:x:100:

getent group Domain\ Users
Domain Users:*:100:

getent group "Domain Users"
Domain Users:*:100:

getent group "domain users"

The last one is the only one that failed
