I have a pdc set up using ldap and everything works great.  
All it does is is authenticate user for a lab environment.  
I have also set up another samba server to just act as a 
file server for users home directories.  Everything works 
fine but I see errors in my logs.  I have security = user.
I see that it keeps trying to add itself to ldap as a 
sambaDomainName.  I know that it cant add it because I didnt 
give that system access to add anything to ldap.  

My question is that why it trying to add itself as a 
domain.  I dont want it to be a domain.  I dont think I'm 
understanding it correctly.  Could someone give me quick 123 
on what you would do to set my configuration up.  All I want 
this system to do is act like a file server while getting 
its info from ldap.  Do I need to do setlocalsid on this 
system?  Maybe that would solve it.  

Thanks in advance!!
