To the best of my knowledge Samba is not quite able to be a PDC yet.  There
is code in the latest release to do it, but I believe its still a bit
experimental.

I think the latest release of Samba is something like 2.0.7.  Cobalt have a
MIPS version of 2.0.7 ... its included in a NASRaQ OS Update;

    NASRaQ-Update-OS-2.0.pkg

but I have not seen it elsewhere.

Probably the best person to provide advice would be a member of the Samba
Team.  I believe John Blair, author of at least one book /etc/smb.conf.

Cobalt's Professional Services Group may also be prepared to assist for $$$.

Cheers,  Malcolm
