Let me guess, you are using the 'rid' idmap backend and you have a line
similar to this in your smb.conf:
idmap config DOMAIN : range = 110000-???????
Where 'DOMAIN' is your workgroup name.
If so, then that it is how it is supposed to work, the groups (and
users) ID is calculated from the RID and the low range:
ID = RID + low range
110513 = 513 + 110000
Lots of bad ideas were used in the past, using '513' to identify Domain
Users was, in my opinion, a bad idea.
The easiest way out of this will be to write a script that checks for
group ownership and chown any '513' to Domain Users.
