[Samba] Winbind issues with AD member file server

Ugh, I knew I forgot something.  Here is smb.conf:

---

[global]
kerberos method = system keytab
template homedir = /soe/%U
workgroup = BSOE
template shell = /bin/bash
security = ads
realm = AD.SOE.UCSC.EDU
idmap config BSOE : schema_mode = rfc2307
idmap config BSOE : range = 100-999999
idmap config BSOE : backend = ad
idmap config BSOE : unix_nss_info = yes
idmap config BSOE : unix_primary_group = yes
idmap config * : range = 10000000-10999999
idmap config * : backend = tdb
winbind use default domain = no
winbind refresh tickets = yes
winbind offline logon = yes
winbind enum groups = no
winbind enum users = no

################################################################################
#   You should not define any shares in this file directly, use
shares.conf.   #
################################################################################

include = /etc/samba/shares.conf

---

Here's an example of one of the share configurations from shares.conf,
which are uniform:

---

[backups]
 path = /notbackedup/backups
 comment = Window Servers Backups
 create mask = 0640
 directory mask = 0750
 force create mode = 0640
 force directory mode = 0750
 force group = backups
 valid users = +BSOE\backups-group +backups
