Yes, the Samba server

 How did you setup a PDC without using either nss_ldap or winbind?

nss_ldap:
 * requires modification to /etc/ldap.conf
 * requires the nss_ldap package.
 * requires modification of /etc/nsswitch.conf

winbind:
 * requires the winbind flag for the samba ebuild
 * requires modification of /etc/nsswitch.conf

getent passwd
 * returns users
 * returns workstations & servers also they will have a '$' at the end
of the username).

Normally this is completed via nss_ldap, but I have used winbind
before, for the sake of not depending on the bleeding sore that is
nss_ldap.  So, how is the local box finding the network users?   From
your config, it appears that you are using smb-ldap tools, but is that
the case?   If you cat /etc/passwd - do you see the users?

What does /etc/ldap.conf look like?

Sincerely,
  Joshua
