Robert,
Have a look at 
http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Implementing_System_Policies_with_Samba
This explains deployment of system policy through samba 3.X. It also 
outlines the difference between system policy and group policy
You can still use Local Group Policy (through gpedit.msc), but as the 
name suggests its local to every machine, and not deployable from the 
Domain Controller.
If you using samba4 have a look at 
http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/HOWTO#Step_1:_Installing_Windows_Remote_Administration_Tools_onto_Windows
These tools include Group Policy Management console that works very well 
with samba4
