That article doesn't want to load for me at the moment, so I can't see what
it says, but your 'nsswitch.conf' looks wrong.

If you are using 'compat', then it needs to be the only entry for the database;
you can't use 'compat' + something. 

I think you want either:
 
	passwd:         winbind
	group:          winbind
	shadow:         winbind

or:
 
	passwd:         compat
	passwd_compat:  winbind
	group:          compat
	group_compat:   winbind
	shadow:         compat
	shadow_compat:  winbind
