[Samba] Winbindd dies instantly

Hi,

I'm trying to set up a Samba 4.1.16 file server for our (Samba 4) 
domain. But for some reason I can't seem to be able to get it to work. 
Even worse, I have run out of ideas on how to debug this. I've been 
tampering with this for quite some time now, but I've come to realize I 
can't figure this out on my own.

Can someone give me some pointers on where to look in order to fix this?


First off, smbd and nmbd seem to work just fine (as is to be expected), 
but winbindd dies instantly.

This is how I've gone about it:

     $ sudo service samba start

Everything starts. But windbindd stops.

     $ sudo net join ads -U administrator
     Joined domain DOMAIN.

     $ sudo service samba restart

Everything starts, but winbindd stops again.

output from winbindd:

    winbindd version 4.1.16 started.

Where do I go from here?
