Thanks for the code reference. In the meantime I've set up a PDC with success.

I'm still puzzeld by the fact that a standalone server has a different domain than the workgroup (smbclient reports the workgroup as TDOM), but I assume that it's one of the quirks in windows networking.

1. Why is a sambaDomainName=ALTA entry created while I specified a workgroup of TDOM?
2. How do I avoid it? (if appropriate)


The domain name for a server's SAM depends on the
server configuration (see get_global_sam_name() in the
source code).  So for standalone and member servers,
the machine's SAM domain is the machine name.  FOr a
Samba DC, the SAM name is the domain/workgroup name.
