This is by design I think :-/

On the DC the above is the only line that it is used. Everything else
winbind related is ignored.
On a member server you can add

   winbind enum users = yes
   winbind enum groups = yes

then "getent passwd" will show all users (getent groups still doesn't
work). But, again, those lines are ignored on the dc.
