I installed a fresh 14.04 box using your smb.conf and krb5.conf and am 
still having issues.  wbinfo -u returns domain users, wbinfo -g returns 
domain groups, getent passwd returns local users only - and there is a 
delay after displaying the last local user (like perhaps its trying to 
contact the domain).

when i try to log in as a domain user, i see this in the auth.log:
pam_krb5(lightdm:auth): user growland authenticated as growland at DOMAIN.COM
lightdm: gkr-pam: error looking up user information

this is a windows server 2008 server that it is authenticating against.  
Is there any way to see more information about this error?
