alter login on Windows user groups

Hi,

I have problem with respect to "alter login" on Windows user groups (created
via Active Directory).

If I execute the statement "alter login [domain\groupname] enable" I get an
exception saying (the exception also occurs with "alter login
[domain\groupname] disable"):

Msg 15151, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot alter the login of 'domain\groupname', because it does not exist or
you do not have permissions.

If if try to enable the login via SQL Server Management GUI I get the same
exception.

Is this because it is not at all possible to alter the logins of windows
user groups? Or is it a bug in SQL Server?

I am running MS SQL Server 2005 SP1 (compatibility level 90).
The user I am executing the statement as is "sysadmin" on the server.

Thanks in advance.

Kind Regards,
Rune Jensen
