[Samba] Samba 4.8 Config SMB.Conf File

[Tyrus Shivers]

yes windbind is installed and running
yes sssd is installed, but it was not running. I did start it and ran net
cache flush and id again and still no such user.

This is the working nsswitch.conf file that was copied over from the 7.3
working system.

/etc/nsswitch.conf

passwd:    files sss winbind
shadow:    files sss winbind
group:       files sss winbind
#initgroups : files sss

hosts: files  dns  myhostname

ethers:       files
netmasks: files
networks:  files
protocols:  files
rpc:            files
services:   files   sss

netgroup:   files  sss
