You can remove these lines from your smb.conf, they have no effect with
the winbind backends you are using:

idmap config * : schema_mode = rfc2307
idmap config MERCURIA : schema_mode = rfc2307

You are shooting yourself in the foot, not only do you have 'winbind
enum' lines (which you definitely do not require), you also have
'winbind expand groups = 10', this will work poor old winbind to death
? I suggest you remove those lines.
