It simply means that you have not added the appropriate settinf in smb.conf
eg
---
#============================   winbind Stuff   ==============================
   winbind cache time = 10
   winbind enum users = no
   winbind enum groups = no
   template shell = /bin/bash
   template homedir = /home/%D/%U
   winbind uid = 10000-20000
   winbind gid = 10000-20000
---

change top suit your needs, and restart samba
