yes you have setup samba as a PDC check samba docs however samba 2.0.x has
some limitations
as a PDC server with samba 2.1.x The Linux server can  completely act as a
PDC
in win machines click on the option log on to NT Domain and give the domain
as linux netbios name

ypnis (ypbind) is for linux/unix machines authentication using the nis
server setup
