[Samba] Synchronizing 2 samba linux servers

I currently use Slackware for my linux installations. From what I gather I
would need to download and install pam then download and install LDAP on the
primary machine. On the secondary machines I just need to install pam_ldap
to do authentication. I would alos need to recompile Samba to use the new
pam/Ldap support.
Is the above correct?
TIA
