Not quite, but NT domains.

There are a number of ways provided by the plugin distro including 

Plugin-scripts:
check_disk_smb 
check_proc (to see if smbd and or nmbd are running) either by ssh or
nrpe if the Samba is not on the Nag/Netsaint host.

Contrib:
check_wins
check_ms_spooler

There is work underway (Mr T De Blende is going to start testing) to
produce a check that a PDC/BDC complex is able to validate a domain
user, provide its LAN MAN logon script and accept connections (to some
or all of) shares specified in that script.

What exactly do you want to monitor ?

Samba as WINS
Samba as file server
Samba as DC ?

Yours sincerely.
