I have joined my Ubuntu server to Windows AD environment. Ubuntu server can successfully authenticate with the AD. I want to give Windows "domain admins" group to root privileges. then I edited /etc/sudoers file and added

%TEST\\domain\ admins  ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL

like this (test.com is my domain name) but when i try to run sudo commands it gives me

linuxadmin is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported.

(I added linuxadmin to domain admins group, My AD domain is running under windows 2016 and linux version is Ubuntu 16.04.5 LTS)

I wrote the following line to /etc/sudoers file:

%domaingroup ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL

If you want the Windows Dom-Admin-Group to be sudoers, write down the real name of the group.

%domänen-admins ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL

This worked well in our german Win2012R2/Debian environment.

You don't know the rigth name? Enter the shell-command 

#>id

and you get the groups your currently loggedin user ist member of.
