Help a newbie with winbindd. Do I need add user script parameter in this case?

Hi all,
I downloaded the SAMBA_2_2 source from CVS,
configured it with --with_winbind , compiled it, installed it and I try to integrate it into my Linux system.
It is SuSE 7.2 - I get rid of the samba that comes with it.

I modified the files
/usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf
/etc/rc.d/smb - startup file for smbd, nmbd, winbindd

There is some confusion in my head about the way all this should work.
I joined the domain with the 'smbpasswd -j' command and it said OK.
I am able to get the list of users, groups on the DOMAIN with the wbinfo .

I can't integrate it with the nsswitch.conf things.

Here is the contents of my nsswitch.conf

passwd: compat winbind
group:  compat winbind

hosts:          files dns
networks:       files dns

services:       files
protocols:      files
rpc:            files
ethers:         files
netmasks:       files
netgroup:       files
publickey:      files

bootparams:     files
automount:      files
aliases:        files

I expected when I do
./wbinfo -n TL-HQ+mdaskalo

and then
./wbinfo -S S-1-5-21-797381781-1399745242-37170099-1031

'this gives me result
10050

then I tried 
chown 10050 somefile

then 
'ls -la somefile' 
gave me
drwxr-xrwx    2 10050    users         131 Jan 22 21:54 somefile

I expected to see 'TL-HQ+mdaskalo' instead of 10050.

What could I have done wrong?

Should I set the add_user_script parameter in smb.conf - is it needed when using winbindd?


Thanks in advance?
