I don't have any BDC, I have only PDC as it's enough for my needs.

smb.conf doesn't have anything to do with choosing master or slave.

It is done with smbldap-tools (0.85) - in /etc/smbldap-tools there 
should be two config files.
You can specify there a master and a slave (master will be used for 
writing).

In smb.conf there are configured tools which are used for adding useers 
or machines - these tools are smbldap-useradd etc.
They read settings from /etc/smbldap-tools, and this is the whole mystery :)

If you want, I can send these files anyway.
