Firstly 'getent passwd administrator' on a domain member shouldn't show
anything (it does on a Samba AD DC), remember it is now mapped to root.

If you run 'getent passwd <a username>' does this produce any output ?

By default, 'getent passwd' without a username will show nothing, you
will need to add these lines to smb.conf:

    winbind enum users = yes
    winbind enum groups = yes

I don't think you mentioned what OS you are using, but you will also
need a few extra packages installed, on debian based distros these are:

libnss-winbind and libpam-winbind

I also install libpam-krb5
