You don't manage OS-specific (or "distro"-specific if you prefer that term) group IDs in a network database. Those are managed on a per-system basis in the local /etc/group or analogous file(s). Your network database should contain only your organization's local user and group identities. That's why the default NIS Makefile has MINUID and MINGID settings.
