hi,

if the BDC can write into the backend (ldap master), then everything should be fine. otherwise it will give back an error, e.g. if you want to change your password.

please also note this thread

and this one

i have a samba server with ldap as pdc. everything works fine and now i'm testing samba as bdc. i copied the smb.conf from the pdc to the bdc and changed the domain master = yes to no!

then i stopped the smb service on the pdc and tried to login on an winxp machine and this also worked (the log file show me that the login is on the bdc)! is it possible that the users can change their passwords when the pdc isn't available or must the pdc be online?how can i do this?

with best regards and thanks in advance for your answers
