If wbinfo -s and wbinfo -n both show the same uid-sid mappings then 
winbind itself should be ok

# wbinfo -n jsmith
S-1-5-21-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-1234 User (1)


# wbinfo -s S-1-5-21-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-1234
MYDOMAIN\jsmith 1
#

Does "getent passwd" and "getent group" return "Windows" users?
Does "id MYDOMAIN\jsmith"

If not you may be missing the libnss_winbind or nss_winbind file in 
/usr/lib (or /usr/local/lib) depending on OS and where samba was installed.

The group thing is weird.  "wbinfo -g" shows more groups than "net rpc 
group list"  But "wbinfo -g" shows groups from trusted domains and the 
BUILTIN domain.  I would check the results of "net groupmap list."  Make 
sure that Domain Users and Domain Administrators are mapped.
