Yes, that works.

Yes, everything seem to be alright there

Any idea what I need to look at? Strange thing is this:
I have a script that builds my login batch files on the go and saves
them in the netlogon directory. If the PDC is up by itself, then it
works fine. When I bring the BDC up and login with the client, it saves
the batch file to the BDC's netlogon directory. But if I take down the
PDC then the client cannot login to the BDC.
I actually got it to where the 'pdbedit -L' works while the Master is
up, but if I take down the master then I get errors.
Thanks.
