You do have winbindd running, don't you?  If so, it looks like you
haven't joined the domain correctly which I suspect is the cause of all
the problems.  'net testjoin' should return OK if you've successfully
joined.

This means there are five groups in your domain, and none created on
the local Samba machine.

This looks fine, I suspect you need to look elsewhere to fix the
problem (like the join to the domain.)

Cheers,
Adam.
