Hi Jan,

You must have Heimdal and related deps that support ArcFour HMAC/MD5.
Input Administrator or equal level at kinit user.
join to ADS
and start winbind and smb, nsswitch already set of course.

I had same problem and it solved when I rename my machine with other 
name and rejoin to domain.

Cheers
