Am still reading it...   :)
However, I wanted to take a moment to mention the smbldap-installer at
http://majen.net/smbldap/
It rocks!
I am glad to see you covering some areas not covered in many howto's.
Questions that may come up in setting up a pdc may be...
Folder redirection using policy files, etc.
How to copy existing profiles to the roaming profiles.

Giving a user permission to join the domain. (so folks aren't running
around with the root password)
net rpc rights grant "Domain Admins" SeMachineAccountPrivilege

and possibly these as well..
SeMachineAccountPrivilege \
SeTakeOwnershipPrivilege \
SeBackupPrivilege \
SeRestorePrivilege \
SeRemoteShutdownPrivilege \
SePrintOperatorPrivilege \
SeAddUsersPrivilege \
