changing group ID

My current GID are all < 100, however I am having issues now with this. Does anyone know of a way to change all GID's to perhaps add 100, IE so GID now = 23 will = 123. I am running an NIS network so changing the table is easy , however finding all the files on all my filesystems and modifying them is what i need to find if there is an easy way to do this.....
