Is it administrator or administrateur ?
You might need
username map = /usr/local/samba/lib/smbusers
and define
root=TESTREDHAT+administrateur

or whatever unix account it should map to

I use winbind trusted domains only = yes, so I don't have any experience 
with on the fly account creation with the ad option.

also, winbindd has no -D option.  It just is a daemon unless you pass a 
flag for interactive.
