Both systems: Slackware64 14.2, Samba 4.4.13

Working system kernel 4.4.19
Non-working system kernel 4.4.75

smb.conf, same on both systems:

[global]
        realm = HPRS.LOCAL
        workgroup = HPRS
        usershare allow guests = Yes
        usershare max shares = 10
        security = ADS
        template shell = /bin/bash

  idmap config *:backend = tdb
  idmap config *:range = 2000-9999
  idmap config HPRS:backend = ad
  idmap config HPRS:schema_mode = rfc2307
  idmap config HPRS:range = 10000-10099

       winbind enum groups = Yes
        winbind enum users = Yes
        winbind nss info = rfc2307
        winbind offline logon = Yes
        winbind refresh tickets = Yes
        winbind use default domain = Yes

To ACR ACR's comment about the libnss_winbind.so* links, yes I have those.
