[Samba] Is Samba Acting as a BDC

I believe I've set up a machine as a BDC for a Samba PDC and I'm trying to test that. Doc sources are the Samba3 Howto and Samb3 by
example.
net lookup dc (run on bdc or other samba server)lists 2 IP's that indicate that it is in fact a BDC.
net lookup dc
172.21.1.10
172.21.1.30
However nltest on an XP machine reveals:
C:\>nltest /dclist:CMT
Domain 'CMT' is pre Windows 2000 domain. (Using NetServerEnum).
List of DCs in Domain CMT
\\SUZY (PDC)
The command completed successfully
This indicates only PDC (Suzy 172.21.1.30).
Furthermore running net lookup dc from the PDC shows:
>net lookup dc
172.21.1.30
Which do I believe?
Here's the config from the alleged BDC:
[global]
workgroup = CMT
interfaces = eth1, lo
bind interfaces only = Yes
#server string = "Sales"
printing = cups
printcap name = cups
printcap cache time = 750
cups options = raw
username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
wins server = suzy
map to guest = nouser
logon path =
logon home =
logon drive =
encrypt passwords = yes
passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://localhost ldapsam:ldap://suzy
ldap admin dn = cn=Manager,dc=ptcoupling,dc=com
ldap idmap suffix = ou=Idmap
ldap user suffix = ou=People
ldap suffix = dc=ptcoupling,dc=com
ldap machine suffix = ou=People
ldap suffix = dc=ptcoupling,dc=com
## for BDC
logon script = /etc/samba/netlogon.bat
domain logons = yes
domain master = no
TIA,
Larry
