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.
