[Samba] PDC / BDC in a Samba Domain Controller.

[Juan Pablo Michelino]

Thanks Daniel and John.
I am not using slurp. I am using rsync to syncronize all data base.
I need to know if the BDC can write his local LDAP data base. If it is 
OK, I think that the domain go to work well, regardless if the conection 
betwen PDC and BDC is broken or not.
Can your help me?
Tanks.
