Save yourself the costs of having to buy licensing and extra equipment and run Samba as an NT4 BDC. In my humble belief it would be easier for you to maintain and less overhead at your remote location where you might have limited IT support.

I currently use Samba and Winbind to provide shares and file access to my existing locations users. The account information is kept on a NT4.0 PDC and BDC. I have connected the new location via OpenVPN. I am wondering how I should go about expanding my domain. Should I set up another NT4.0 BDC in the new office and have a local Samba machine get account info from that via Winbind? Or should I set up the Samba machine as a BDC itself? Is it possible for a Samba BDC to receive account updates from a NT4.0 PDC?
