Syntax for "group" resource in windows

Could someone please show me an example of working syntax for group
resource when working windows?

I am trying to add a domain user as a member of the Administrators group
(local to the box administrators), but keep getting the following error:

==> default:

Have you tried following:

group "Administrators" do
members ['domain\foo']
append true
action :modfiy
end
