Wow! This is what I want to achieve but can't! As soon as I start winbindd
domain logins are not accepted anymore.

Can you send me your smb.conf?

Looks like your ftp server program does not use PAM...
how does it accepts DOMAIN+user usernames then? I'm not that familiar with 
PAM but could it be that ftp does not use 'session' line, only 'passwd' in 
PAM conf file? Can you try to verify this?
