OK Michael, I have tried all possible combinations and it makes no
difference, no home directory and no login shell. I cannot try with any
other users, there are no other users, I suppose I could create some,
but I feel that I would be wasting my time, the problem surely is in the
code and not the number of users.
The winbind setup that I added to smb.conf was 'cut & pasted' from my
working Linux Mint 17 laptop (4.1.6) and it works. My next step will be
to set up another VM, compile 4.2rc2 again but this time set it up as
client against my test DC, lets see what happens ;-)
