I use those (or similar) without any problems.

Question: what happens with BDCs? Do you need to specify account
creation scripts on the BDC too?

If the PDC goes down on our network, the primary LDAP server is likely
to go down too, so making any changes to LDAP is not possible without
reconfiguration. So I am uncertain: what is required for the BDC?
