You should need any local account.  Did you read SBE?  You should have
followed chapter 12.3.1 & 12.3.2 then 7.3.4 I personally use 7.3.4.1 like
this though:
[global]
        workgroup = GUESTSHIRE
        realm = GUESTSFURNITUREHIRE.COM.AU
        server string = Guests_NSW File & Print server
        security = ADS
        allow trusted domains = No
        syslog = 0
        log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
        max log size = 1000
        printcap name = CUPS
        panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d
        idmap backend = idmap_rid:GUESTSHIRE=5000-1000000
        idmap uid = 5000-1000000
        idmap gid = 5000-1000000
        template homedir = /home/%U
        template shell = /bin/bash
        winbind nested groups = Yes
        printer admin = "@GUESTSHIRE\Domain Admins"
        printing = cups
        print command =
        lpq command = %p
        lprm command =

[homes]
        comment = Home Directories
        path = /home/%U
        valid users = GUESTSHIRE\%S
        admin users = "@GUESTSHIRE\Domain Admins"
        read only = No
        browseable = No
