You do not need the samba server to be a PDC. On Windows 98 there is an 
event scheduler which can be set to run the "net time" periodically. On 
NT there is the AT command as well which can be started from a logon 
script. There are also any number of free NTP  clients which can be set 
to run periodically. I currently use the analogX one but have used others
