Not sure why that worked, it shouldn't because you don't have 'winbind 
enum groups = yes' in your DC's smb.conf

Also you are using the 'ad' backend on the Unix domain member and 
'3000061' isn't a gidNumber, it is an xidNumber and only used on DC's. 
This actually is a good thing, because if you do give Domain Admins a 
gidNumber, it just becomes a group and cannot own files and folders in 
sysvol.
