[Samba] Is this possible using winbind

Here is my goal:
Computers 
    A -- MS PDC
    B -- Linux which maintains all local accounts, and cached accounts
    C -- Linux which uses A and/or B for authentication

User authentication on B will use Winbind to autheticate against A (AD)
User authentication on C will first try A, and fall back to B (using
Winbind) 
nss on C is configured to locate information on B (via winbind or ldap)

I've been trying to use idmap ldap backend, but haven't been successful
yet, and just want to know if this path is doable before spending more
time on it.

Thanks,
Craig
