What happens if something goes wrong and you cannot login as a domain
user ? You really should have at least one local Unix user.

If your AD users have a uidNumber attribute containing a unique
number inside the DOMAIN range you have set in the domain member
smb.conf AND 'Domain Users' has a gidNumber attribute containing a
number inside the same range AND libnss_winbind & /etc/nsswitch is
setup correctly, it should work, try reading this:
