Hi Denis,

Thank you for your mail.

I assigned the GID 10000 to the domain admins group through ADUC, and
wbinfo --info-group "domain admins" display the correct output.

But i am still not able to execute succesfuly #chgrp "Domain Admins"
/home/demo

And when i go to ADUC and try to open  the Unix Attribute of domain admins
group, i have the error "Unable to execute". But ADUC still display the
contain of the tab with the correct NIS domain and the GID.

Is it normal ?

Thank you for helping.

Regards
