Yes. The problem is that your group is currently "mkpasswd".  This
indicates that the /etc/passwd (and possibly /etc/group) files should
be rebuilt. See the man pages for mkpasswd and mkgroup then, for
example, run
mkpasswd -l [-d] > /etc/passwd
mkgroup  -l [-d] > /etc/group
In addition, please note that the -d switch is necessary for domain users.
