I could be mistaken (definitely not an expert) but I believe NetBIOS
function is defaulted to "On" regarding samba shares under the file server
services; but, as far as the AD DC folders relating to profiles, GPO's, and
other domain user content, I think you're correct -- network browsing is
not functional at this time.

Enabling this parameter will disable netbios support in Samba.
Netbios is the only available form of browsing in all windows versions
except
for 2000 and XP.
Note
Clients that only support netbios won't be able to see your
samba server when netbios support is disabled.
Default: disable netbios = no
