There is no sane way of doing this.
You could use the 'ad' idmap backend and give every user a uidNumber
attribute containing a unique number and Domain Users a gidNumber
attribute containing '513'
Your idmap config line would have to be something like this:
idmap config DOMAIN : range = 500-9999999
I cannot recommend doing this, it removes the possibility of any local
Unix users.
It will be a lot more work (and it will be ongoing) than changing the
group ownership of the files through a script.
