So the above search worked against a 4.11.x DC, but not against a 4.12.x 
DC.

However, didn't you say that it didn't work at all now ?

It looks like it cannot understand 'LANG=C net -P ads search 
\(objectClass=group\) sAMAccountName objectSid distinguishedName' or the 
'-P' (which is use the machine password) isn't working
