Yes, but you probably don't need it (more on this later)

As this is Ubuntu, you may have it installed.
You can check with:
sudo dpkg -l winbind
The last line will look like this if it isn't installed:
un sssd <none> <none> (no description available)

Debian based distros start packages when they are installed, so no
magic is involved.
I suggest you go and read this:
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setting_up_Samba_as_a_Domain_Member
and one of these:
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Idmap_config_ad
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Idmap_config_rid
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Idmap_config_autorid
You need to add 'idmap config' lines to your smb.conf (if you don't
know what they are, you will once you have read the above wiki pages).
You also need to find out why 'systemctl start winbind' doesn't work.
