[Samba] Setting up a PDC + multiple BDCs across subnets

[Alexander Nimmervoll]

Hi!

For me smbpasswd -j DOMAIN -r PDC works, but I have to create an LDAP
Account
for the maschine name that joins the domain first. (smbpasswd -a -m BDC$ )
or some other script to
create machines on the PDC.
I use Samba 2.2.6pre1.
