I think the workgroup is meant to be the short version of the domain, so if your realm is DOMAIN.COM your workgroup should be DOMAIN. Are you trying to join Samba to the domain? If so, you shouldn't need to specify a password server, that's only used to check passwords when Samba isn't part of the domain (IIRC.) If you intend to add Samba as a normal PC inside the domain then password authentication will work (perhaps courtesy of winbind) without specifying a password server.
