I think the problem is that the usermod program used the /etc files, and not NSS. So, you are trying to add "bobby" to the "Domain Users" group in /etc/group, but that group doesn't exit there. I found that using Linux ACLs with multiple groups assigned to files was an acceptable work around for my needs.

Anyone got any ideas? Many Thanks!
