A PDC requires direct access to the passwords - it cannot use a separate
KDC.

However, you can make your KDC and Samba share a password database - the
'lorikeet' extensions to Heimdal (included in Heimdal snaphots) allow a
KDC to run with Samba passwords as the backend.

There is still work to do, but there is a good write up here:
