It's just one step, you then need to migrate using net rpc vampire,
after seting up your samba, and joining it to the NT4 domain.
Anyway this method doesn't require you to kill your NT4 PDC yet, so
after doing so try to shut it down, make Samba the PDC, and try to
reboot one of your clients. If something went wrong, you can still turn
back to NT4, fix the problem, and try again.
