I found a solution by accident - you need to
      systemctl enable winbind
and then it will appear in the "Services" gui and you can 
start/stop/disable it.
(Or just use the "start" option above and don't bother with the gui.)

/rant on
So what is the point of making it all gui based when there are bits missing?
Case in point - I put together a new box today, and did a fresh install 
with the (appalling) Fedora 18 installer, selecting XFCE as the desktop, 
and when I finally got to start the desktop selected a "default" panel. 
   No "Services" tab, and no way to insert it.  How is an amateur 
sysadmin going to turn stuff on and off?
/rant off
