We are attempting to connect a RHEL 6.8 server running Samba4/Winbind to a Windows 2008R2 Active Directory. We can make the connections, see the server in the "computers" section of the AD. We have been able to establish valid Kerberos connections and can establish a trust relationship. When we run the wbinfo utility we are able to retrieve group information, information pertaining to the DC, information pertaining to the domain, but we receive nothing back from the wbinfo -u command. Also we have not setup the Samba4 server as a DC, nor do we want to. Looking for possible areas to examine.

You shouldn't base your conclusion on that, but try to call wbinfo -i username, and then chown/chgrp with a domain user/group a few files. It is more relevant. And then test with smbclient and from a windows desktop.
