[Samba] Policies for AD clients (still poledit only ?).

In the article you provided you'll find the following paragraph:

:::
Currently Samba, the Free Software SMB Server, does not implement Active 
Directory functionality when using it as a Primary Domain Controller. If 
you deploy any Samba PDCs you will want to master System Policies using the 
SPE. So this article will cover the basics of Microsoft's older System 
Policy Editor, how to obtain it, use it and implement it's policies.
:::


So this is specifically not about an AD setup and therefore not relevant 
for you IMHO.
