force group not working with samba-4.1 (with patch in bugzilla)

Which configuration are you using, the AD DC one or something else? With AD
DC you can force a certain group using ACL's so this option really isn't
relevant anymore, however I know with some of the other 4.X code the samba
team has been moving it towards the 'DOMAIN\group' format. I think the
reason behind this is because that is how Windows reports it. In my opinion
it should be added to samba-tool testparm to warn the user they are doing
something that won't work.
