The first thing I would do, start winbind if it isn't already running.
If you run an NT4-style PDC, then any Linux clients need to use
'security = domain' and run winbind, Louis says this is also required on
the PDC, but I am not entirely sure this is correct, I don't remember
doing this.
You only use 'security = ADS' on a Unix computer joined to an AD domain
and adding it to a Unix client joined to an NT4-style domain will not
make it an AD client.
If you only have Windows clients then I suggest you upgrade to AD, which
your Windows 10 machines will work better with.
It is normal to set up a sandboxed network to test the upgrade, this way
you can find and fix any problems before you do it for real on your
production network.
