 I would not expect you to need smbldap on a member server.  Typically,
member servers authenticate against a pdc or bdc.  They do not authenticate
locally.

One option is to load ldap on the server.  Load Samba so it can configure
against ldap.

You can then configure the machine to use the ldap on the pdc for
authentication.

Chapter 7 of Samba by Example shows a few options re: setting up a member
server to authenticate against a pdc.
