Thank you for fixing this!
I wonder about the use of "objectCategory=group". I would expect the use
of "objectClass=group" instead. But I tried the patch and it works - I
did not try to understand why, yet. The objectCategory looks like
"objectCategory: CN=Group,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,..."
I checked the samba-tool code and see that we typically use the
objectClass attribute.
Is there a special reason for the use of "objectCategory"?

If "objectClass" is also fine, I would adapt the patch, add my RB and
push it.

Best regards,
Björn
