[Samba] domain admins and Samba 3.0.2

Further to my Samba problem with domain admins I tried to add NEWBIOSS\Domain 
Admins to my Local Administrator Group (having removed the one set up when 
joining the domain) and I get the message :

"Info returned from the object picker for object "Domann Admins" was incomplete. 
The object will not be processed"

Does this shed any light ?
