Hallo,

I've setup a BDC in the same subnet like my PDC. I observed that some 
User take the BDC to logon.
The Domain-Join of some PCs will also done at the BDC.

Is this behavior normal and wanted? If done so, I have to rsync the 
profiles or only netlogon?

Best regards
Matthias



PDC:
[global]

        netbios name = PDC
        workgroup = MyDOMAIN
        server string = DC (PDC) (%v)
        security = user
        domain master = yes
        time server = yes
        domain logons = yes
        encrypt passwords = yes
        wins support = yes
        local master = yes
        prefered master = yes
        os level = 64
        enable privileges = yes

BDC:
[global]

        netbios name = BDC
        workgroup = MyDOMAIN
        server string = DC Backup (%v)
        security = user
        domain master = no
        time server = yes
        domain logons = yes
        wins support = no
        wins server = PDC
        encrypt passwords = yes
        local master = yes
        os level = 62
