not really - if you make all the settings manually then we should have
the same result.

those statements are from dhcpd.conf - a separate program.

Samba won't do DHCP by itself but's trivial to install a the dhcpd from
the ISC for most distributions.
if you're using debian just type 'apt-get install dhcpd'
and modify the dhcpd.conf to look like the conf file I sent you.
You don't have to do this though - it should work fine with manual
configuration.

I also speak spanish, but I think your english is better than my spanish
Are you "sure" that the registry patch worked? It says that it does but
I had to do it by hand using regedit
before.
Looking more carefully at your config file i think you need to set
domain logons=yes
