samba - Jan 2003 - security = 'domain' and 'server'

i would like to know 
whats the difference between
security = server
security = domain

i saw the docs and found that the 'server' does the authentication with
and SMB server
while 
'domain' does an authentication with a  NT PDC .
am i rite?

also isnt it that an NT PDC can act as a SMB server also?
