Because getent takes the value of 'primaryGroupID' and not 'gidNumber'!


gidNumber: This is the attribute behind the 'Primary group name/GID'
filed on the Unix Attributes tab.


primaryGroupID: This is the Windows primary group of an user account. To
change this, go to the 'MemberOf' tab in ADUC, add the 'Domain Admins'
group, mark it in the list and then click the button 'set primary
group". See http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc771489.aspx
