you can, you just need to set the smbldap tools so that they'll write on
the master and not on the replica.  I use them in this way, because I've
got a network with 9 locations.

There's only a problem.  If the vpn is slow it can  happen that when you
add a workstation  the replica needs a  bit of time and  the bdc doesn't
see the replica in time and the joining of the new workstation fails.

no, they need the same sid.
