Hmm, so you have a group in AD called 'Domain Admins' and another
called 'domain admins', don't think this a good idea, for proof (note
this is on a DC, but the same would occur on a Unix domain member):
root at dc4:~# getent group Domain\ Admins
SAMDOM\domain admins:x:3000011:
Oh look, Unix sees 'Domain Admins' as 'domain admins'
Perhaps using 'Unix Admins' instead might be a better idea.
