# chgrp "domain users" /root/test.sh
# ls -al /root/test.sh
-rw-r--r-- 1 root domain users 1464 Jan 25  2017 /root/test.sh
Works fine here, can you post your smb.conf, OS info and samba version.

You can test your setup with: getent passwd "domain user" 
If that does not give you your uses back, then you need some adjustments, but
for that we need more info first.

How are you running Samba ?
As an AD DC, Unix domain Member, NT4-style PDC or a standalone server ?
It might help if you posted your smb.conf
