I have two NT servers that are domain members. One is the print server, and
the other hosts the company-wide calandar program. Just make them members
of the domain like any other workstation. The only NT backup program I have
samba domain experience with is ArcServe. To get it to backup samba shares,
there needs to be an admin$ share on the machine -- then ArcServe sees the
samba machine as an NT machine, and it works fine. I just made admin$ point
to /tmp.
