Set "winbind use default domain = yes" in smb.conf if you want to change 
ownership of files to ad users using their actual name. If you don't set 
it, you should change the ownership using "domain+username" as the 
username which linux doesn't like much.

If you want getent passwd/group to work please make sure that you have 
the below parameters in smb.conf though it has slight problems while 
maintaining large number of users.

winbind enum users = yes
winbind enum groups = yes

This is not required if you are running "getent passwd <username>".
