Right, and it cannot work, regardless of samba version.  Windows clients will 
only authenticate with their machine credentials when using kerberos, and that 
in turn requires an AD (or sth. compatible).  While this is rather bad for 
anyone running a samba-only domain, it's not the worst thing in general given 
the security issues of NTLM(v2) authentication as used without an AD.

Kind regards,
Malte
