Can you provide a little more information?
You want to setup a Samba server. Some of the clients have machines
that they don't want to join to the domain but they still want to access
resources on your server? Presumably these are file shares ?
It seems to me that regardless of whether your server is joined to a
domain, or is standalone, or has to access some other authentication
server, that the client users still need accounts to connect to your
server.
In the past I have setup Samba as "NT4" style domain controllers with an
LDAP backend. This then adds the overhead of managing an LDAP server.
