True (in fact, the special users in AD are not supposed to get sync'ed 
at all),
but I'm puzzled about the group member being sync'ed. By design, only
group members that are also already present in the peer directory should
be sync'ed. Therefore, if things are working to plan, the Administrator user
should not be sync'ed, and neither should any group member that has its
DN.
