The most likely explanation and that the process is sequential but with a dispatch from AD to DS-anarchic, with a group can be created before members in DS users. these are leading to a later stage in a request for suppresssion AD DS to members of the group that did not exist before the creation of the group. This is "normal" since DS checks the consistency of information and therefore the group members. The solution to this problem is to create manually in the AD to add the lost members in the group or may be to initialize sync twice in a closed time. The administrator of the Windows server and the AD insulted me as a result of this blunder I asked him if he had a backup of the AD. he had not -- Jean-Noel Chardron
