Fellow samba folk,
Please disregard my earlier message. I have solved the problem, and it
appears to have been a combination of things.
First, somehow (I have no idea how), the Samba package must have gotten
corrupted during installation. I cleaned up the mess, reinstalled, and had much
better results.
Second issue: I followed the instructions at this link, Section 2.6,
VERY carefully, to get the system to be just a simple member server. I'll worry
about ADS later.

That helped more than anything else. In particular, I was unaware
(until I read the above) that Samba should not have been started until it was
joined to the domain. I was under the impression it had to be started BEFORE it
could join up.
Everything's working fine. Thanks for reading, at least.
