If you want multiple samba servers to use the same LDAP backend, they
essentially all need to be domain controllers of the same domain.  This
is the supported way to have a single backend shared between multiple
servers.

You don't need to ever use the DC function from windows clients, but the
servers need to think they are a DC.
