you solution looks very well. i think that only needs some kind of port
sentry to look for the 137-139 ports running in the PDC machine.. and when
this ports goes down automatically change "domain master = no" for "domain
master = yes" in smb.conf..
if this is right, maybe a script or official doc could be included to
dissapear the *ghost* of no BDC support under samba.
