Deleting a group that doesn't exist in the LOCAL sss domain appears to be
successful.  A administrator that mistyped the group name will think that group is
deleted when it was not.

asq: Unable to register control with rootdse!
# returned 0 records
# 0 entries
# 0 referrals
[root@jennyF11 etc]# sss_userdel mygroup
[root@jennyF11 etc]# echo $?
0
