Ouch, quite a lengthy document.  So a couple of quick questions if you 
don't mind.  Here is what we are trying to accomplish:

We will have a Samba server that a Windows 2003 server will access 
shares for users.  We want users logging into the windows server via 
rdesktop to authenticate via ldap.  Access to the Samba server should 
authenticate via ldap as well.  Bottom line, single sign in for all 
services.

Also, is it possible to do this without making the Samba server a PDC?

Thanks for any insight..
