[Samba] Listing groups in the AD

I am having some issues with the mapping of groups. I want to map one AD
group to one unix group (don't care much about the rest), but the
problem is that I can't find the group.

The Linux machine I am using is part of the AD already and I can get
users to log in via winbind authentication but I need to restrict who
can log in.

If I do 
net groupmap modify ntgroup="Linux Users" unixgroup="deploy" -U
administrator
I get an error telling me that the group doesn't exist.

If I do
net groupmap list
I get a list of groups that seem to correspond to the built-in ones, no
matter if i use -U administrator or not

If I do 
net group -U administrator
I then get all the groups, including the one I want to map.

Can anyone give me a hint on why is this happening?

I am using samba-3.0.10-1.4E.11 on CentOS 4.

Thanks

Gabriel
